What is bigger gas particles or smoke particles?
Gas particles are typically smaller than smoke particles. Gas molecules are individual atoms or small clusters of atoms that are very spread out and move freely. Smoke particles, on the other hand, are larger aggregates of solid or liquid particles that are suspended in the air.
Does warm air or cold air make gas particles move apart?
Gas particles, like the particles in all states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) are always moving apart and colloding with other particles. Gas particles have more space in between and tend to move faster than the particles in a solid or liquid state. Temperature only affects how fast a particle moves, therefore warm air makes gas particles move faster and cold air makes gas particles move slower.
How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
Is aerosol heavier than air?
On average, aerosols are lighter than air because they typically consist of tiny solid or liquid particles suspended in a gas. The particles are so small that they can remain suspended in the air for extended periods.
Why are gas can be compressed into smaller volume but solid cannot?
Gases have much more space between particles compared to solids, which allows them to compress into a smaller volume. In solids, particles are packed tightly together in a fixed arrangement, limiting their ability to be compressed further.

Why is an something liquid in a can but a gas when sprayed?
It isn't a gas only smaller particles of the same liquid floating on air when they come out of a can.

Can the particles in gas be compressed into smaller volume?
Yes, particles in a gas can be compressed into a smaller volume by reducing the space between them. This will increase the pressure of the gas as the particles are forced closer together.
How do gasses liquid and soilds differ in respect of the spaces between particles?
Liquids have smaller spaces between the molecules than a gas, and Solids have smaller spaces than liquids.
Why are the hot gas particles moving faster than cool gas particles?
Because hot gas particles have greater kinetic energy than cold gas particles
Do gas particles move slower than solid particles?
No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.

Why we can't see air?
We can't see air because it is a transparent gas. Our eyes can only detect light that has been reflected or scattered by the particles in the air, such as dust, water vapor, or pollutants. Since air particles are smaller than the wavelengths of visible light, they do not scatter or absorb light in a way that is visible to the human eye.

How could you separate a solid from gas?
On Earth, under the effect of gravity, solids with an aerodynamic diameter greater than 100µ will precipitate from the air (dust will settle). Particles with smaller diameters will stay suspended in air until they are removed by filtration. The gas will have less ability to suspend a particle as the temperature decreases. At the same temperature, a dense gas will be able to suspend a larger solid particle than a less dense gas. Cool the gas, let the solids settle out, filter the solids out, use a centrifuge to spin the particles out, use static electricity to charge the particles and cause them to precipitate to an oppositely charged plate, use a saturated atmosphere to condense liquid on the particles to wash them from the air (rain).
Which property of a gas allows you to squeeze an air balloon into smaller shapes?
in a solid, the particles are tightly packed together so you cannot compress it. in a gas the particles are spaced out and so it is compressed easily. this is why you can make an air balloon smaller. the property is called density. gases are not dense.
