What occupies the greatest amount of space which state of matter?

the gases, due to their low density in comparison to solids or fluids occupy the greatest amount of space


In which state do the particles occupy the greatest amount of space?

Think of it like this, a gas takes up the whola amount in a container while a solid is fixed in and liquid is the nd when it comes to the volume.


Why heat can occupy space?

when heat occupieses space,the particles of heat are moving around in the space that they occupy


When a fluid increases does its particles occupy less space?

Liquids, solids and gasses EXPAND when heated- the particles occupy more space.


What does the volume of gas depend on?

The volume of gas depends on the temperature, pressure, and number of gas particles present. These factors affect the amount of space the gas particles occupy.


Does gas flow freely and will not occupy the space given?

No, because gas particles have space in between them so they occupy the given space. For example, when you boil a pot of water, after a while, you start to see steam coming out of the top. That is why it will fill the container. Liquids however, do not occupy the space given unless there are enough particles in the liquid to fill the space to the top.


Why does smoke ocupy space?

Smoke is made up of small particles which have tiny mass. Any massive can occupy space. Light being electromagnetic cannot occupy space but traverses through space.


Does heat and light occupy spaced?

Heat does not occupy space, as heat is just particles vibrating more rapidly. However, if you heat something up, it will occupy more space, due to its particles vibrating over a wider area. Light is much more complicated due to the weirdness of quantum mechanics. Light is made of photons. They're particles but not in the same way that molecules, atoms, electrons, neutrons and protons are. Light can behave like waves of energy instead of particles. Normal particles such as electrons occupy a bit of space and 2 of them cannot occupy the same space at the same time. A photon occupies the bit of space it's in, sort of, but another photon can occupy the same space at the same time. So if you have an electon-sized space you can put only one electron in it. If you have a photo-sized space you can put as many photons into it as you want.


How will you show that matter is composed of tiny particles?

because matter has weight and occupy space


Do smoke have mass and occupy space?

Yes smoke does have mass and it does occupy space.


How does the total volume of gas particles compare to the volume of the space between the gas?

The amount of space that gas particles can take up is the size of the container, but the amount between them also is determined by the amount of space the gas takes up.


Creases and folds allow more neurons to occupy a limited amount of space?
