No,an increase in pressure in liquid does not increase it compressibility but it does in gas:-P

What is compressibility of liquids?

That means how easy it is to compress the liquid - to reduce its volume by applying pressure. Liquids are normally not very compressible.


An increase in the temperature of a contained liquid?

INCREASES the solubility of SOLIDS and LIQUIDS... and DECREASES the solubility of GASES.


Does a gas have very low compressibility?

No. Gasses are normally highly compressible. Liquids such as water and melted metals, have low compressibility.


Do gases and liquids share the compressibility property?

Gases and liquid do not share the same compressibility property. In liquids, the molecules are approximately lesser compressed, that Is why they move around freely and does not have fixed shape. While gas is the most compressible and it doesn't have a shape.


Does change in pressure affect the solubility of solids?

The solubility of solids and liquids show virtually no changes with pressure. However, solubility increases with pressure in the solubility of gases in liquids.


What principle explains how hydraulics work?

The non-compressibility of liquids, and the equivalence of p = F/A (pressure equals force divided by area) explain why and how hydraulics work.


What happens to the solubility of O2 in a hyperbaric chamber?

The solubility of gases in liquids increase when the pressure increase.


Which solution will have more gas dissovled in it a solution under high pressure or one under low pressure?

The solubility of gases in liquids increase when pressure increase.


What is the effect of pressure on viscosity?

As temperature increases viscosity decreases.


How does temperature affect vapor pressure?

Vapor pressure increases with temperature. As the temperature increases ,molecules of liquid find it easier to escape.


Which state of matter can be compressed easily?

The particles in the gas phase are most easily compressed. Solids and liquids are generally considered to be incompressible (at least ideally) Solids are even less compressible than liquids due to the stronger intermolecular interactions. Further explanation: The compressibility of gas can be seen in the ideal gas law PV = NRT; P - pressure V - volume N- moles R - constant T - Temp (in kelvin) If you hold the temperature and increase the pressure volume goes down.


Is it possible to compress liquid?

The compressibility of liquids is low enough that considering them to be incompressible is usually a safe assumption.
