Gases can be squashed compressedbut solids cannot?
Flow. Gases and liquids can both modify their shapes.
What is the scientific reason for gases can be compressed very easily but solid and liquids are imcompressible?
Because the intramolecular forces of solids and liquids already provide an amount of force compressing the atoms to a point that they are no longer as easily compressed.
Has no definite shape solid liquid or gas?
Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.Only solids have a definite shape. Neither liquids nor gases have a definite shape.
What are the variations of matter?
solids, liquids, and gases
What do solids liquids and gases depend on?
solids, liquids, and gasses, all depend on how many atoms are in that element.
Why unlike gases liquids and solids can not be compressed easily?
Intermolecular forces in gases are lower.
Where do you use the fact that gases can be compressed and liquids cannot?
a liquid can be compressed
Gases can be squashed compressedbut solids cannot?
Flow. Gases and liquids can both modify their shapes.
Why can you squash gases?
In solids and liquids the molecules are already very close together so they can't be squeezed together much more than that. In a gas molecules are very spread out so they can be compressed .
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
Which state of matter cannot be compressed?
Solids and liquids are difficult compress. Gases, however, are easy; they respond to changes in temperature and volume.
What are some examples of how gases are different from liquids and solids?
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .
Why can gases be compressed more than liquids and liquids more than solids?
Gases have the space between their molecules, and so can be compressed the most. Next is liquid which has more space between the molecules than a solid, but not as much space as in a gas. So, it an be compressed also, but not as much as can a gas. And finally, a solid does not have much space between molecules and thus cannot be compressed too much.
All solids liquids and gases are?
some solids,liquids and gases are dangers some are not dangers
Why the petrol cannot be compressed?
Liquids in general have very little space between molecules. Gases have lots of space, and therefore can be easily compressed, but liquids don't.
What item has a fixed volume solids liquids or gases?
solids and liquids
What is the scientific reason for gases can be compressed very easily but solid and liquids are imcompressible?
Because the intramolecular forces of solids and liquids already provide an amount of force compressing the atoms to a point that they are no longer as easily compressed.
