What else can I help you with?
Is carbon monoxide compressible?
Yes, carbon monoxide is compressible. Like all gases, it can be easily compressed into a smaller volume by increasing pressure. This is due to the fact that gases have more empty space between their particles compared to solids and liquids.
Why can only solids vibrate but liquid and gases can't?
Liquids and gases can vibrate. In fact sound is the vibration of air molecules.
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.
What could be placed in a container that would not take on the shape of the container?
Gases, Liquids and solids are sometimes contrasted by the fact that liquids and gasses will take on the shape of the container that they are placed in while solids do not.
Are atoms closest together in gases?
No, atoms are not closest together in gases; in fact, they are farthest apart compared to solids and liquids. In gases, atoms or molecules move freely and are spaced widely apart, resulting in low density. In solids, atoms are tightly packed in a fixed structure, while in liquids, they are closer together than in gases but still have some mobility.
What properties do plasmas have that solids liquids and gases dont?
A plasma is an ionized gas ... thus its properties are those of a gas PLUS the fact that it can conduct electricity.
Liquid and gases are different from solids because?
liquids and gases do not have a fixed shape and volume like solids do. They are able to flow and take the shape of their container, while solids have a definite shape and volume. Additionally, the particles in liquids and gases are more loosely packed compared to solids.
What property of gases is a pneumatic system is based?
A pneumatic system is based on the property of gases to compress and expand easily when pressure is applied or released. This property allows pneumatic systems to use air or other gases to transmit force and energy to operate various mechanisms and components.
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.
What accounts for the compressibility of gases as compared to liquids and solids?
The biggest difference would be the volume you can compress. Because a liquid has far less "open space" between the molecules it will not compress as much as a gas would. There are also difference in temperature change when compressed to the same volume. And there will be differences of pressure when the same molecules are compressed from their base state.
What do sound waves travel the slowest solids liquids or gasses?
In fact, it travels faster, in a liquid, than in air.In fact, it travels faster, in a liquid, than in air.In fact, it travels faster, in a liquid, than in air.In fact, it travels faster, in a liquid, than in air.
Why are liquids denser than gas?
The difference between stages of matter have to do with how they are bonded. Solids are interlocked and crystalized. Liquids are loosely bonded and connected. Gases are in fact, not connected. Instead, they are loosely bonded atoms or molecules, made up mostly of space between them. This space is what makes the density of gas incredibly les than that of liquids.
