What is more dense liquid xenon or solid xenon?

All the noble gases have solid forms that are denser than their liquid forms, so no, the liquid form is not denser than the solid form of Xe.


Why are gases more compressible than liquids or solids?

Gases are the only ones that are compressible in fact. They are compressible because the atoms in gases are very far apart, and when you compress them, their atoms can fill up these spaces.


Do gases compress?

yes, actually the word compress means to the increase in pressure or decrease in volume. so as we can see that the gas is a substance which can change any of the shape so on compressing them they might be get change there phase into liquid phase. Also we have a phenomenon of the material. As we can see that we have the types of the matter-: a). solid (molecules very dense) b). liquid (molecules not to dense and not to far) c). Gases (molecules very far) so as the gas is the substance or matter that have molecules very far so they can be compressed to be liquid and as well as solid. Example: The water steam is a good example for that phenomenon, which on compression can be changed in liquid and then in solid ice.


Why solid are preferred in conduction over liquid and gases?

A liquid or gas will also conduct. However, in gases or liquids, the analysis becomes more complicated, because there is not only conduction, but also the possibility of convection.


How are the properties of a gas different then the properties of a liquid or a soild?

gases can be compressed where as a solid can not. liquids can be compressed slightly, but not as much as a gas can be gases have a greater surface area, and greater kinetic energy, so a substance is more reactive as a gas rather than as a solid or liquid


What is 3 state of matter?

the three states of matter includesolid, liquid or gasa solid has a definite shape and volume while a liquid has a definite volume but an indefinite shape. this is because a liquid can take up the shape of its container (where the liquid is held). And a gas has neither a definite shape and volumeall solids liquids or gases can go through the changes of state !


Why does a liquid change to a solid?

Because the heat energy makes the particles in the solid vibrate more and more, meaning that they need more room and they become more distant and they loose the perfect order they were once in, because of the movement. So if u r looking at the particle theory of solid, liquids and gases, the particles in the liquid are further apart then the solid because of this.


Which of these does not expand liquid solid or gas?

All of them can expand - for example, when they are heated. Gases usually expand more than solids or liquids.


How does pressure affect density?

Pressure and density are directly proportional (all other factors constant) for a gas. If we compress a gas, it gets more dense. The answer is submitted based on considerations regarding gases. Compressing a solid or a liquid doesn't get us too much. Liquids are largely incompressible, and solids pretty much aren't. Don't make this question hard by slicing and dicing it (i.e., don't offer that a stack of papers is compressible because we all know that it is). The thinking that a solid isn't compressible is based on a block of steel. We're talking basic physics here. Keep it simple.


Hows the energy differs between a solid liquid and gas?

In three equal masses of the same pure substance, the solid, the liquid and the gas would all have the same amount of total energy. The solid will have less kinetic but more potential, the gas will have more kinetic but lesl potential energy.


Is silver chloride a solid liquid or a gas?

At stp (standard temperature and pressure) silver is a solid. The only elements that are liquids at stp are bromine and mercury. There are more elements that are gases than liquids.


What is a solid or liquid of two more or more metals?
