A solid could be ice, and most metals like iron which are found in columns three through twelve on the Periodic Table. Some gases include hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon. Gases can be found on the last two columns to the right on the periodic table (columns 17 and 18).

What can gases do that solids cant?

Gases can expand to fill any container they are placed in because their particles are not confined to a fixed position like in solids. Gases can also easily be compressed to decrease their volume, which is not possible for solids due to their fixed arrangement of particles. Additionally, gases have higher kinetic energy and move more freely than solids.


What are examples of non fluids?

Some examples of non-fluids are solids (such as ice, wood, and metal) and gases (such as air, oxygen, and carbon dioxide). These substances do not flow and have definite shapes or volumes.


What is the common denominator in solids liquids and gases?

The common denominator in solids, liquids, and gases is that they are all forms of matter. They differ in their arrangement of particles and the extent to which those particles move. Solids have tightly packed particles with little movement, liquids have particles that are more spread out with some movement, and gases have particles that are very spread out and move freely.


Do solids liquids and gases have different masses?

Yes, solids, liquids, and gases have different masses because their particles are packed differently. In general, solids have the most mass because their particles are closely packed, while gases have the least mass because their particles are spread out. Liquids have a mass between that of solids and gases.


How does the kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?

Gases have the highest kinetic energy, followed by liquids, and then solids. -apex

How gases are different from solids?

They are lighter in density as compared to solids. Gas are compressible, whereas not all solids. Gases exhibit better flow characteristics than solids. Gases readily react with other substances. All solids are seen by the naked eye whereas some gases are not.
