Why does a gas have no definite?
Because its particles have very very light bonding with each other and there particles are free in the air.................

Properties of the three states of matter?
Solids: Atoms are not free to move about; they vibrate about their fixed positions Liquids: The particles are free to move about by sliding over each other Gases: The particles more about randomly at high speeds
Do the particles touch in plasma?
The particles in a liquid have some force of attraction between them. They are free to move past each other but they tend to stick together, however loosely.
What are the particle movement of the phases of matter?
In solid phase, particles vibrate in fixed positions. In liquid phase, particles are more free to move around each other but still relatively close together. In gas phase, particles move freely and are far apart from each other.
What occurs when a liquid boils?
The particle bonds are broken and the particles are free to move whereever unless they hit each other
In what directions do liquid particles move?
Liquid particles move in random directions due to their kinetic energy. The particles are free to flow and slide over each other, creating a fluid or liquid state of matter.
Why do gases have no free surfaces?
Gases do not have free surfaces because their particles are in constant, random motion and spread out to fill any container they are in. This means that the particles are constantly colliding with each other and the walls of the container, eliminating the possibility of a free surface like liquids or solids.
Why gases have no free surfaces?
Gases do not have free surfaces because their particles are in constant random motion, colliding with each other and the walls of the container. This molecular movement leads to equal distribution of the gas particles throughout the container, preventing the formation of a distinct free surface like in liquids.
How is particle movement related to matter?
Particles and solid matter are locked into place and have very little free room between them. Particles in a liquid do not have much free space between them, but can easily move around each other. As for particles in gases, they can move freely amongst each other, and also have a lot of free space between them.
What are the factors affecting mean free path?
Density: As gas density increases, the molecules become closer to each other. Therefore, they are more likely to run into each other, so the mean free path decreases.Increasing the number of molecules or decreasing the volume will cause density to increase. This will decrease the mean free path.Radius of molecule: Increasing the radius of the molecules will decrease the space between them, causing them to run into each other more. Therefore, mean free path decrease.Pressure, Temperature, and other factors that affect density can indirectly affect mean free path.
What are the differences between free settling and hindered settling?
when the particle do not collide with the wall of the container or with the other particles is called free settling the suspended particles in the medium do nor effect it and when the particle collide with the other particles and with the wall of the container an d collides with the suspended particles is called hindered settling
