I don't think they exactly have a name for it. Its just called "The Surface".

If you want the state of that substance its solid(when the particles are closest to each other) and gaseous(when the particles are farthest from each other).

If you want the value of the cross-sectional area you have to give a value in your question.

Other than that I don't think its called something other than a surface.

What is the part of the longitudinal wave where the particles are close together called?

Compression is the part of a longitudinal wave where the particles of the medium are crowded together. Rarefaction is the part where the particles are spread apart.


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.


Would the contour lines of the grand canyon be spaced out or close together?

Are particles of a gas close together?

No they are the furtherst away out of solids, liquids and gases.


What is difference between rarer and danser medium?

In denser medium,particles of matter are very close to each other.whereas,in rarer medium,particles of the medium are slightly farther apart.


Why does sound travel best in a solid?

sound is the vibration of air particles. but think about how far all the air particles are spaced from each other. now think of how close the solid's particles are spaced to one another. more particles will vibrate and so sound travels better

How would you draw particles arrangement of each state of matter?

Well, for a solid, you would draw the particles close together and touching so that none of them could be moved around. For a gas you would draw them very spaced apart with none touching, and for a liquid you would draw them some where in the middle with some touching and some spaced out.


Can you compress a gas because its particles are close together?

No. You can compress a gas because the particles are NOT close together. If they are close together (as in a solid) it is extremely difficult to compress any further.


Are particles close together in a gas?

That depends on the gas and it's concentration. That was the last answer... however... to be more specific the gas particles in a gas are spread out if u meant as in normal activeness of the particles. :) in a sold, they are close together because a solid is closed up and usually not as much air goes into them. in a liquid they are not as close as in a solid but not as far as in a gas. It is medium of CLOSE and far from one another in particle meaning. :) hope i helped


On a weather map high wind speeds are indicated where are spaced close together.?

On a weather map, high wind speeds are indicated where thin lines with arrows are spaced close together. This indicates strong winds and the direction in which they will move.
