What else can I help you with?
Is a solid compressible?
No. Imagine a sponge. A sponge is a solid, but since the atoms aren't that close together, they sponge is still malleable. Another example would be when you put a nail into a piece of wood, the nail remains there because you just compressed the wood inside around the nail which keeps a firm grip on the nail.
What is rigid and incompressible in chemistry?
Because there are smaller spaces between their molecules, liquids and solids are considered incompressible under practical conditions. (This is one reason that hydraulic systems can work.) Gases that are very highly compressed may change phase to liquid or solid when compressed.Air Flow and CompressibilityIt depends on the Mach number and the changes in density occurring for that physical process. Eg. Airflow from a fan in a room is considered incompressible flow although air is a gas; even airflow over gliders and low speed aircraft is reasonably incompressible. However, flow over high speed aircraft (above Mach 0.3) can be safely assumed to be compressible, as density changes of gas cannot be neglected.The same applies to liquids and solids. However since the speed of sound in solids and liquids is very high, it is difficult to acheive mach 0.3 without causing a very large pressure difference. Hence these flows are assumed to be incompressible flows.
Are solids not appreciably compressible?
Solids are not appreciably compressible because the intermolecular forces within solids are strong and resist compression. The particles are already closely packed, limiting their ability to be compressed further. Any changes in volume due to compression in solids are typically minimal.
Is carbon monoxide compressible?
Yes, carbon monoxide is compressible. Like all gases, it can be easily compressed into a smaller volume by increasing pressure. This is due to the fact that gases have more empty space between their particles compared to solids and liquids.
Does change in pressure affect the solubility of solids?
The solubility of solids and liquids show virtually no changes with pressure. However, solubility increases with pressure in the solubility of gases in liquids.
What is the difference between Co2 compressible and Co2 incompressible?
Gasses are compressible and liquids and solids are incompressible. Using this information one can surmise that CO2 compressible would be the gas phase of CO2 and CO2 incompressible would be the solid (dry ice) phase of CO2.
Are solids incompressible materials?
Solids are not completely incompressible, but they are much less compressible than liquids and gases. This means that solids can be compressed slightly under high pressure, but their volume does not change significantly compared to liquids and gases.
Are solids dense and incompressible?
Solids are typically dense, meaning they have a high mass per unit volume. They are not completely incompressible, but they are much less compressible than liquids and gases due to the strong intermolecular forces holding their particles in place.
Why are gases highly compressiable while solids are almost incompressible?
Gases have particles that are far apart and move freely, allowing them to be easily compressed when pressure is applied. Solids, on the other hand, have particles that are closely packed and have strong intermolecular forces, making them resistant to compression.
What is the physical state of matter of incompressible?
Solids. They are most resistant to outer forces; but strictly speaking all materials are compressible.
Which of the following best explains why CO2 gas is easily compressible but solid CO2 (dry ice) is incompressible?
The intermolecular forces are stronger in solids.
Is a solid compressible?
No. Imagine a sponge. A sponge is a solid, but since the atoms aren't that close together, they sponge is still malleable. Another example would be when you put a nail into a piece of wood, the nail remains there because you just compressed the wood inside around the nail which keeps a firm grip on the nail.
Can you compression a liquid why or why not?
Yes, you can compress gases, liquids, and solids. However, liquids and solids are MUCH less compressible than gases, and for many practical purposes you can consider them "incompressible". This means that a high pressure will only cause a very small change in volume.
In which state or states is matter compressable?
You can compress matter in any state because matter is mostly empty space. However, because it takes so much pressure to compress liquids and solids, they are said to be incompressible. ................. The gaseous state of matter is readily compressible.
Which states of matter would be incompressible?
Solids are considered incompressible because their particles are already tightly packed and do not easily compress together due to their fixed positions and strong intermolecular forces. Liquids and gases are compressible because their particles have more freedom to move and can be compressed closer together.
What is the only matter is rigid and incompressible?
solids
Why solids is not compressible why?
solid is a state in which molecules are closely packed than liquids and gases. the inter molecular distance between the molecules of solids are less or negligible.thats why the solids are not compressible
