What else can I help you with?
Do you need great pressure change to have a measurable change density in gases?
Density = mass / volume, so to change density you need to change the mass within a fixed volume or the volume of a fixed mass. Increasing the mass or decreasing the volume will increase the pressure by a linear degree, so no, the density of a gas is very easy to change. E.G.: Decreasing the volume by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.1%. Increasing the mass by 1.0% will increase the density by 1.0%.
What properties do only gases have?
Gases have the property of indefinite shape and volume, as they expand to fill any container. They also have low density compared to liquids and solids. Gases can be compressed and expand easily when heated.
Is the density of liquids the same as the density of gases?
No, the density of liquids is generally higher than the density of gases. This is because the particles in liquids are closer together and have more intermolecular forces compared to gases. Consequently, liquids have a higher mass per unit volume, resulting in a higher density.
Is true about density and states of matter for most substances?
The density of solid state of matter is higher than the density of liquids and the density of liquids is higher than the density of gases.
What is true about density and states of matter for most substances?
The density of solid state of matter is higher than the density of liquids and the density of liquids is higher than the density of gases.
How does density change?
Density usually changes when an object is heated or cooled - especially in the case of gases, or when there is a change of phase.
How can you change the density?
Gases can change their volume and that causes the density to change. Liquids and solids are practically incompressible. Their volume change under pressure is such a small amount that their density changes very little if at all.
How can pressure change the density of solids liquids and gases?
Increasing pressure can compress the particles of a substance closer together, increasing the density of both solids and liquids. In gases, increasing pressure causes the gas particles to come closer together, decreasing the volume and increasing the density.

What happened with density of gases on heating?
As gases are heated up, its volume increases, resulting in a decrease of density.
What properties do only gases have?
Gases have the property of indefinite shape and volume, as they expand to fill any container. They also have low density compared to liquids and solids. Gases can be compressed and expand easily when heated.
Is temperature a factor in determining density?
In the case of gases yes. For a gas, the density is directly proportional to the pressure and inversely proportional to the temperature (absolute ie Kelvin). In other words the higher the temperature the lower the density. This is because gases expand with temperature. Liquids and solids do expand but only slightly so there is not much change in density for these.
Is the density of gases a characteristic property?
The density is a physical characteristic, specific for each material, including gases.
Which gas has the highest density among all gases?
Radon gas has the highest density among all gases.
Why does a gas not have density?
All materials - including gases - have a density !
Is the density of liquids the same as the density of gases?
No, the density of liquids is generally higher than the density of gases. This is because the particles in liquids are closer together and have more intermolecular forces compared to gases. Consequently, liquids have a higher mass per unit volume, resulting in a higher density.
Which phase has the lowest density when comparing solids liquids and gases?
Gases
