What shape and volume properties do gases and liquids and solids have?
Mass and volume
Are gases easier to squash than the other 2 states of matter?
By "squash" it would seem you are thinking of compressing into a smaller volume. The simple answer to that is: YES. Because the molecules in gases are more widely spaced than solids or liquids, they have less resistance to being brought closer together, i.e. squashed.
How gases are different from solids?
They are lighter in density as compared to solids. Gas are compressible, whereas not all solids. Gases exhibit better flow characteristics than solids. Gases readily react with other substances. All solids are seen by the naked eye whereas some gases are not.
Who said gases are made of particles separated by empty space because gases can be squashed and yet return their masses?
Democritus
Do gases are more easily squashed than solids and liquids?
how am i suposed to know
What are the properties of the solids liquids gases?
solids cannot be poured , they cannot also change shape unless you bend it , break a bit of it or melt it. liquids can be poured. gases can not be condensed down
Why can gases be squashed but solids cant?
because the bond of a solid are fit and tight together and the bond of the gas is far apart making the gas easily squash

Has a definite size and shape?
Solids have a definite shape and size. This is where solids differ from liquids and gases, for which the same cannot be said.
Are all gases fluids?
No. There are four types of matter, solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas. If something is a liquid, it cannot be a gas.
Why can you squash a gas but not a solid?
cause you can feel it and touch it
Can a gas be squashed into a smaller space?
yes. Gases fill any shape/container that they are put in because the particles are spaced out, where as solids don't move because the particles are close together.
How are solids and gases a like?
While solids and gases are very different - one can be physically grasped and the other cannot - they also share similarities. For examples, solids and gases are alike because they both have matter, mass and weight.
What can s waves not travel through?
S-waves cannot travel through liquids, but they can travel through solids and gases. P-waves can travel through solids, liquids and gases. Hope this helped! :D
If cooled does most solids change into gases?
When cooled gases change to liquids (usually) and then solids Solids don't change to gases upon cooling
All solids liquids and gases are?
some solids,liquids and gases are dangers some are not dangers
