Solids are less changed in volume by pressure than fluids (liquids or gasses or plasmas) because the atoms or molecules in solids are more closely bound by the chemical bonds that form them.

Are hydrogen and helium gases?

They can be depending on the temperature and pressure. They can also be liquids and solids. At room temperature and pressure they are gases.


Does change in pressure affect the solubility of solids?

The solubility of solids and liquids show virtually no changes with pressure. However, solubility increases with pressure in the solubility of gases in liquids.


Are solids incompressible materials?

Solids are not completely incompressible, but they are much less compressible than liquids and gases. This means that solids can be compressed slightly under high pressure, but their volume does not change significantly compared to liquids and gases.

What makes up solids liquids and gases?

Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases


How does the kinetic of solids liquids and gases compare?

The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.

Solids and liquids are not like gases.


Which properties are present in liquid and gas but not in solid?

Fluidity and compressibility are properties present in liquids and gases but not in solids. Liquids and gases can flow and take the shape of their container, unlike solids which have a fixed shape. Gases can be compressed under pressure, unlike solids which have a fixed volume.


In what way are liquids and gases alike?

Liquids and gases are both considered fluids because they can flow and take the shape of their container. They both have the ability to move and are not held in a fixed shape like solids. Additionally, both liquids and gases can expand and contract based on changes in temperature and pressure.


Why are solids, liquids, and gases considered matter?

Solids, liquids, and gases are considered matter because they have mass and occupy space. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, and solids, liquids, and gases all meet these criteria.


What effects pressure?

Pressure can affect the physical properties of gases, liquids, and solids. For gases, pressure influences volume and temperature through the ideal gas law. In liquids, pressure can impact density and boiling point. In solids, pressure can cause compression or expansion, altering the arrangement of atoms and thus changing the material's properties.
