The size of a gas particle is negligible as compares to the volume of the container in which the gas is placed. Gases are mostly empty space, and this is evident because gases can be easily compressed.

What is true if a liquid and a gas are in equilibrium?

liquid molecules forming a gas and gas molecule forming a liquid are equal in number


What happens to a fluid when it heats?

When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules. When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules.


Why a gas would have higher entropy than a liquid?

Gas molecules have fewer constraints on their location, than liquid molecules. Molecules in a liquid have to remain in contact with the other molecules of the liquid, and are limited to a specific volume. Gas molecules can go anywhere, they are not connected to anything. So with more possible locations, gas molecules represent a state of higher entropy or disorder.


What has virtually no bonds between molecules a solid a liquid or gas?

liquid


How do molecules of gas compare to molecules of a liquid?

Both are fluids.Gas is compressible whereas liquid is incompressible. The molecules in liquids are loosely attached while in gas the aren't attached at all. The kinetic energy of gas molecules is more than that of liquids.


What occurs when molecules are distributed evenly through a solid liquid or a gas?

When molecules are evenly distributed through a solid, liquid, or gas, we say that the substance is in equilibrium. In a solid, the molecules are tightly packed and vibrate in place. In a liquid or gas, the molecules move freely and randomly.


How does the spacing of molecules compare in solids liquids and gases?

Solid- Close together Liquid- Bit farther apart Gas- Far apart


What change from the gas state to liquid state is called?

The transition from the gas phase to the liquid phase is called "condensation."


How a gas dissolves in a liquid?

There are a number of ways in which a gas could dissolve in a liquid. It could bind with the liquid molecules.


What is it When molecules of a gas draw closer together to become a liquid?

The process in which gas molecules come closer together to form a liquid is called condensation. This occurs when the temperature of a gas decreases, causing the molecules to slow down and lose kinetic energy, resulting in a phase change from gas to liquid.


Liquid spread throughout a gas?

When a liquid spreads throughout a gas, it is called evaporation. This occurs when the liquid molecules gain enough kinetic energy to escape into the gas phase. The liquid molecules disperse into the surrounding gas until an equilibrium is reached.


What could cause liquid molecules to separate into gas molecules?

Heat!
