We can't say that liquids cannot be compressed we can compress them but very little . To know why we have to understand the concept of intermolecular attraction and interparticle space .
¤Intermolecular Attraction - It is attraction force between molecules of different elements that bound the molecules together .
*Interparticle Space - It is the space between the atoms , molecules and particles of different elements .
The lipuids cannot be compressed much because io liquid intermolecular attration is quite high due to which interparticle space is less due to which it can't be compressed much .
What else can I help you with?
Why can you compress a gas but not liquid or a solid?
The question is based on the misconception that liquids and solids cannot be compressed: they can. The molecules of gas are further apart allowing them to be compressed more easily.
How can liquids be compressed?
No they cannot be compressed easily. It is hard to compress a liquid but not impossible, however.
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.
What cannot be compressed in fourteen letters?
Something that is "incompressible"
Why can't you squash a solid or a liquid?
In solids and liquids the molecules are already very close together so they can't be squeezed together much more than that. In a gas molecules are very spread out so they can be compressed.
Why liquids are incompressibility?
Liquids are cannot be compressed because the particles are close together and compact- this means that the particles cannot get closer together. Therefore liquids can't be compressed.
Where do you use the fact that gases can be compressed and liquids cannot?
a liquid can be compressed
How will you show that gases can be compressed while liquids and solids cannot be compressed?
baybi
How does pressure affect liquids?
Liquids cannot be compressed or expanded. However, if you "squeeze" water, it will find its way out between your fingers. Hope this helps.
What Can't be compressed much but can move about?
Water is an example of a substance that cannot be compressed much due to its incompressibility, but it can move about freely due to its fluidity.
Why can gasses be compressed but liquids cannot be?
Liquids CAN be compressed ... but not as much as gasses, nor as easily. The reason is that there is no "free space" between the molecules of a liquid (nor of a solid), but there is between the molecules of a gas.
Similarities between hydraulics and pneumatics?
easy: Both use pressure now hydrolics used liquids (liquids cannot be compressed) to exhert pressure pneumatics uses gasses which are compressed to exhurt pressure thtas the basics anyway
What phases are able to be compressed?
The phases that can be compressed are typically the gaseous and vaporous phases of matter. Liquids and solids generally cannot be compressed as easily due to their closely packed molecules.
Why can you compress a gas but not liquid or a solid?
The question is based on the misconception that liquids and solids cannot be compressed: they can. The molecules of gas are further apart allowing them to be compressed more easily.
Can jelly be compressed?
True. Jelly is a kind of a Liquid as it was originated from a kind of Liquid. But, Liquids can't be compressed. The understanding of why it can be compressed is that Jelly has a particular or definite appearance and measurement. so, it is acknowledged in the Solid-state. And, Solids can be compressed if you have sufficient pressure on it.
Why can gases be compressed more than liquids and liquids more than solids?
Gases have the space between their molecules, and so can be compressed the most. Next is liquid which has more space between the molecules than a solid, but not as much space as in a gas. So, it an be compressed also, but not as much as can a gas. And finally, a solid does not have much space between molecules and thus cannot be compressed too much.
Why are liquids sometimes more practical to use in a hydraulic system than gases?
Because liquids cannot be easily compressed into a smaller space.
