since gas has no definite volume or shape it can be expanded or compressed, the particles will spread till they reach the walls of their container

How is the volume of gas measured?

The volume of a gas is totally dependent on the container it is in, gas fills its container completely by its particles spreading out. The volume of the container is the same as volume of the gas inside the container. gasses are most commonly measured in SI units (Liters, mililiters, .....).


What is the unique quality of gases in relationship to volume?

A gas will expand to fill up any volume available to it. Think of rigid containers that will not change shape or volume. If you have 10 completely empty containers that can be connected. Inside each is a vacuum. Place some gas in the first container. It completely fills the container and creates some pressure. Connect a second container and some of the gas leaves the first container, but not all of the gas. The gas will completely fill both containers, but creating less pressure. Continue connecting containers, and the same appens every time. The gas completely fills every container that is connected and the pressure 'adjusts' on its own to reach a new equilibrium pressure.


State in which a substance completely fills its container?

Only a liquid can completely fill its container. While it may seem that a gas could, gas is compressible, so even if the container seems full of a gas, more can be put in, so it is never really full.


What has the same volume in any container?
