Which is NOT true?
1. Molecules in a gas are close together compared to their large molecular size.
2. A solid has a set shape and volume.
3. Molecules in a gas spread out to fill their
container.
4. Molecules in a liquid have more freedom
of movement than those in a solid.
5. Molecules in a solid are close together.
yes it does
Yes
Gas
All particles in a gas contain kinetic energy, ie they are moving. As they randomly move about they bump into each other and so they gradually spread until they bounce off the side of the container. Think how if someone farts people closest to the offender smell it first and there is a delay before people further away can smell it. It is the same principle. The "fart molecules" start in a "container" with a small volume. When they are released into a larger container (ie a classroom) they begin to spread outwards until they fill the whole area.
Solid. The molecules are compacted together and vibrate at high speeds. Liquid. The molecules are still close together but are not fixed and can roll around each other. they spread to take the shape of the container. the molecules move at even higher speeds than solid. Gas. The molecules are far away from each other and move even faster than water Molecules. the spread out or shrink inward to meet the shape of the container.
It expands to fill the container.
Gas spreads out to fill any type of container
Yes. The molecules of a gas spread out to fill their entire container.
it will move randomly and quickly to fill the empty space in the container..that's how the matter in a gas do to fill the container.. P/s: gas is matter that has mass and occupied space.
Gas molecules in a container spread out to fill as much of the container as possibly, exerting little pressure on the container as a whole as compared to a solid or a liquid due to the lack of density of the molecules.
Spread out.
Yes
Gas
All the molecules spread out to fill whatever container they are placed in. Thus, gas has no defined volume, and the individual atoms are said to have no volume.
In the gas phase, the particles spread out to completely fill their container.
This is a gas.
No. The particles in a gas spread out and completely fill their entire container, regardless of the shape or volume of the container.
it will spread
Yes a gas fills its container.Gas is very losely packed and its molecules are totally far apart and thus has very less force of attraction and more intermolecular spaces hence gas fill the whole of its container.
