What do gases and liquids have in common that is not true for solids?

They both expand when heated. They both can be compressed to take up less space. They are both fluids, that is, they flow (particles move freely around one another) and they take the shape of their container.

Is it true that a Covalent compounds exist only as crystalline solids at room temperature?
No. Many covalent compounds are liquids or gases at room temperature and pressure. A few examples:- methane, CH4; ethane C2H6; benzene C6H6, sulfur hexafluoride, SF6 Also covalent compouconsisting of small molecular units can form crystalline solids but may also form waxy amorphous solids. Room temeprature crystalline solids are more typically ionic compounds.
True or false these three classes of fire most common in healthcare settings of ordinary Combustibles, gases and liquids and electrical equipment?
For the best results in the fire sting wisher national directly into the biggest part of the flame is true or false
Are liquids easy to compress?
yes it is true well i think so its just what my friend told me sorry if wrong conplane if you want to
Most of the elements are solids true or false?
True
In solid wax and liquid wax molecules are arranged in the same way?
they are the same as normal liquid wax and solid wax, solids are closer together and liquids are not as close together
Is it true that sound travels through solids but not though liquids and gases?
secret
Do gases always have densities less than solids and liquids?
Yes, it is true.
Diffusion occurs both in liquids and gases but hardly at all in solids?
yes, this is mostly true.
Is it true liquids expand more than gases?
No! Gases have the most potential for expansion. Their molecules are farther apart and more loosly held than either liquids or solids. In fact, it is their molecular distance and ability to expand apart from each other that make them gases.
Is it true that only solids and liquids are matter?
No, it's not even approximately true.
Why can gases be squeezed much more than solids and liquids?
Because there are more space between gas particles compare to solid materials.
Is it true that liquids and gases are fluids?
Yes.
Liquids usually have higher volume coefficients of expansion than solids do?
that is TRUE
How does pressure affect the solubility of gases in liquids?
Increasing the pressure, the solubility of gases in liquids is increased.
Molescules in a solid are harder then molecules in liquids and gases true or false?
True.
Amine exist as liquids or solid at room temperature?
Mostly true, though methylamine and ethylamine are both gases at room temperature.The dividing line between liquids and solids at room temperature of 1-aminoalkanes is about 1-aminododecane, which melts at 27-29 degrees Celsius.
Do liquids diffuse fast of slow?
No. Diffusion is faster in gases.
