All gases are compressible (even all fluids and solids are, though much lesser), so there is no special name needed for this group because it is not special.

Are gases the only form of matter that is compressible?

No. All forms of matter are compressible if you use sufficient pressure. Gases are the most easily compressible, but liquids are also compressible if you use high enough pressures. So are solids, believe it or not.


What property makes gases useful for shock absorbers in mountain bikes and cars?

Gases are compressible.


Why gases are compressible?

Gases are compressible because their molecules bounce off of each other instead of sticking together. The molecules of solids and liquids stick together instead of moving freely.


Is carbon monoxide compressible?

Yes, carbon monoxide is compressible. Like all gases, it can be easily compressed into a smaller volume by increasing pressure. This is due to the fact that gases have more empty space between their particles compared to solids and liquids.


Which of the following substances is most compressible?

Gas is the most compressible because the atoms have the most space in between. Solids are the least compressible because their atoms are tightly packed. Degree of compressibility will depend entirely on the substance in question.


What happens to volume if a material is placed under pressure?

The density increases. A lot for well-compressible substances such as gases, a little for hardly-compressible substances such as water.

Gases are compressible (;


Why solids is not compressible why?

solid is a state in which molecules are closely packed than liquids and gases. the inter molecular distance between the molecules of solids are less or negligible.thats why the solids are not compressible

Do gases and liquids share the compressibility property?

Gases and liquid do not share the same compressibility property. In liquids, the molecules are approximately lesser compressed, that Is why they move around freely and does not have fixed shape. While gas is the most compressible and it doesn't have a shape.


Why do gasses have neigthter a fixed volumn?

Because gases are compressible, meaning their volume depends on the pressure exerted on them.
