In a solid. There are a WHOLE lot of particles. They are all tightly connected and the only way to separate them is by using a lot of force. In a liquid, the particles are connected but can move around freely. They still have to connect to the other particles, but the bond is weaker and very easily broken. In a gas, the particles are NOT connected and can move around freely. They do not have to be connected, unlike solids and liquids; and they can move, unlike solids.

∙ 13y agoGases change shape according to their container. Liquids do this too, but only gases fill up ALL the space in the container. Solid doesn't change at all.
Also, gases can change volume by being compressed or otherwise, solids can't. Liquids can be compressed too, but no where NEAR as much as gases can.

∙ 13y agoGases can be spread apart or be squezed together as they fill a container. In gases the atoms and molecules are free to move independently, colliding frequently. The distance between particles in a gas is much larger than the distance between particles in a solid or a liquid.

∙ 11y agoThe molecules are packed less densely so liquids and gases can move more freely than solids. Solids have a definite mass and shape, whereas liquids dont have a definite shape, and gasses have neither.

∙ 13y agowell you have to think what they do have in common and see if they have any other properties if so then there is your answer. =]

3 properties of matter?
The three properties of matter are solids, liquids, and gases.
What properties do gases and liquids share?
they are fluid
What properties do liquid and gases have due to the movement of their molecules?
Liquids and gases are amorphous (shapeless), viscous (can flow), and diffuse (have internal space) due to the movement of their molecules.
Properties of gas?
It has no shape and size and takes the shape of anything. gases are random groups of atoms.
What is A Grade 8 Science Experiment powered by liquids or gases?
Gases.
What properties do plasmas have that solids liquids and gases dont?
A plasma is an ionized gas ... thus its properties are those of a gas PLUS the fact that it can conduct electricity.
What deals with the properties of liquids and gases?
Fluid Mechanics
What properties is shared by solids liquids and gases?
Common properties of liquids and gases: (i) Both do not have a specific shape. (ii) Both are compressible. (iii) In both the states ,substances can flow. That is why they are called fluids.
What are the properties of a liquid that was formed by two gases?
This is a mixture of liquids (ex.: liquid air).
What properties of solids distinguish them from liquids and gases?
Solids don't change their size or shape.
What are the properties of the solids liquids gases?
solids cannot be poured , they cannot also change shape unless you bend it , break a bit of it or melt it. liquids can be poured. gases can not be condensed down
What shape and volume properties do gases and liquids and solids have?
Mass and volume
What do solids and liquids have that gases dont?
big spaces between the particles???
3 properties of matter?
The three properties of matter are solids, liquids, and gases.
What are two properties that all types of matter including solids liquids and gases have in common?
Mass and volume
How are gases and liquids alike?
liquids and gases both have an Indefinite shape. nd some liquids turn into gases with heat.
Which substances can heat travel through by convection?
Fluids, aka liquids and gases.
