Because a solid allready has a form that is why you cant compress it
What else can I help you with?
Is sponge a solid?
Yes it is, it is a solid with many air holes so you can compress it, but then it goes back into it original shape. Unlike Liquids and Gases, which cant.
Why are gases so easily compressible where as it is a almost impossible to compress a solid or liquid?
Gases have weak intermolecular forces and large spaces between particles, allowing them to be easily compressed. In contrast, solids and liquids have stronger intermolecular forces and fixed positions of particles, making them resistant to compression. Trying to compress a solid or liquid typically requires overcoming these strong forces, which is why it is difficult to compress them.
When we compress a stone with your hand you can't compress it why?
BECAUSE in case of stone the molecules are closly packed and they have no vacant space between them and they have not the ability to close to each other so when we compress a stone we cant compress it
Explain why liquids and gases are easier to compress compared to solids?
Liquids and gases are easier to compress compared to solids because their particles are more loosely packed and have more space between them. This allows for the particles to be pushed closer together when pressure is applied, resulting in a decrease in volume. In solids, the particles are already closely packed together, making it more difficult to compress them further.
What is a substance that keeps its shape because its particles cant flow freely?
An salt cube nvm nvm Schumachere adds: This is NOT the answer. If you look on different sites, you will find that the answer is a solid. A salt cube is an example of a solid, yes, but it is not the answer to this specific question.
What can you do to a gas but not to a solid or liquid?
compress it
Sponge is a solid yet you ca compress it why?
You can only compress it to its existing volume (which you can't change without changing the density). The key is that a sponge isn't completely solid, it has pockets of air throughout it. Thus, you can compress those pockets of air and never change the volume of the actual solid.
Can you compress a gas because its particles are close together?
No. You can compress a gas because the particles are NOT close together. If they are close together (as in a solid) it is extremely difficult to compress any further.
Which state of matter cannot be compressed?
Solids and liquids are difficult compress. Gases, however, are easy; they respond to changes in temperature and volume.
Why are solids not easy to compress as gases?
The molecules of solid are already intact that you cannot compress them any further unless there are spaces left.
Which one would compress more a solid rubber bicycle or a inflated mountain bike tire?
A "solid rubber bicycle" wouldn't be particularly useful, so I assume that you actually mean a comparison between a solid and an inflated bicycle tire. Answer: It depends. An inflated tire of a very high pressure will compress less than a solid tyre made out of soft rubber. OTOH a hard rubber solid tyre will compress less than a low-pressure inflatable tyre.
Is a solid hard to compress?
Yes they are, because the atoms are packed closely together
Can helium be coverted into a solid?
no. it cant be converted to solid
Why can't we compress a solid block of steel?
In a solid like steel, the atoms are packed as close together as possible. This being the case they can not be compressed together further so you can not compress (reduce the volume of) a solid block of steel.
Is sponge a solid?
Yes it is, it is a solid with many air holes so you can compress it, but then it goes back into it original shape. Unlike Liquids and Gases, which cant.
Which state of matter expands when hated and is easy to compress?
Gas is the state of matter that expands when heated and is easy to compress due to the large spaces between its particles.
How do molcules in a solid move?
they dont? its solid, they cant move.
