This is due to the fact that the particles of the liquid are close together and have a definite volume, whereas the particles of the gas are far apart and do not have a definite volume.

What is harder to compress gas liquid or solid?

The molecules of a solid are the most tightly packed than those of either gas or liquid making it the hardest of the three to compress. Gas has the most space between molecules and is therefore the easiest to compress.


Is displacement of liquid by liquid easier than by gas?

Yes, Liquid -Liquid displacement is easier than displacement with gas. the liquids cannot be compressible, but gas can. the volume of gas required for displacement is lower than volume of liquid.


What can you do to a gas but not to a solid or liquid?

compress it


Why gases are easier to compress than solids or liquids are?

Gases are easier to compress than solids or liquids because gas particles are more spread out and have more space between them. This allows for the gas to be compressed more easily by reducing the volume of the container, as opposed to solids and liquids which have their particles closer together and experience more resistance to compression.


How can you change gas to liquid?

-- Cool it. -- Compress it (but you must also cool it while you compress it).


IS LPG GAS a fuel oil?

EXACTLY NO WHY BECAUS LPT IS LIQUID PETROLIUM GAS,THAT MEANS WHER THE GAS GET THE LIQUID STAGE AT THAT POINT THEY CATCH THE LIQUID AND THEY COMPRESS THE GAS AND STORE IN A CYLINDER EXACTLY NO WHY BECAUS LPT IS LIQUID PETROLIUM GAS,THAT MEANS WHER THE GAS GET THE LIQUID STAGE AT THAT POINT THEY CATCH THE LIQUID AND THEY COMPRESS THE GAS AND STORE IN A CYLINDER


Why does liquid compress much less than a gas does?

This is due to the fact that the particles of the liquid are close together and have a definite volume, whereas the particles of the gas are far apart and do not have a definite volume.


Why does it take an enormous amount of pressure to compress a liquid?

It takes more pressure to compress a liquid than a gas because the molecules in a liquid are already much closer together than the molecules in a gas. To get them even closer requires a great deal of pressure.


Is it more difficult to compress a liquid than gas?

yes, because liquids are already touching each other. They cannot be squashed. Squashing a gas builds pressure.


What is compressor use for?

compressor is used for compress the gas or liquid to a certain level "Based on design" like In a air-conditioning compressor is used for compress the gas on high temperature and high pressure in the result gas convert to high temperature liquid form.

To change from a gas into a liquid?

Compress the gas until it liquefies if it is below its critical temperature or cool the gas to below it's liquefaction point
