Why would a gas not be suitable to fill the tube that moves the piston in the rubbish - mover?
Gas is likely to be too easy to compress.
What are two characteristics of fluids?
Fluids can be either liquids or gases. Gas is easy to compress and expands to fill its container while liquid is hard to compress.
Can a gas be compressed?
Gases can be compressed,this is because they have small particles and can fit into smaller spaces, for example:they can be squeezed into aerol cans
Which do you think is the best state of matter?
i think the best state of matter is gas because it is very easy to compress and i9t is easy for heat to go through it and everything u try to do is very easy to.
Can you compress gas?
yes you can.
What are the traits of a gas?
The traits of gas are no definite volume, shape and mass. Gases are also easy to compress and can occupy far more spaces than solids and liquids from which they form.
What happens to gas in a balloon when that gas is heated?
The gas will expand as it is heated.
It is nearly impossible to solids and liquids?
Compress. They tend to occupy a nearly fixed volume.
Which is the hardest to compress?
(see question Which is harder to compress solid liquid or gas)
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.
Does gas compress easily?
Yes it does. Of the 3 common states of matter, the gas phase is the easiest to compress. This is because gas molecules are traveling very quickly and there is a lot of space between atoms, allowing room to compress.
When water is heated it changes from a solid to a what?
That one is easy. It becomes a gas. That process is called "Vaporation". The steam that comes out of the water is the gas. It only becomes a gas when the water boils.
