The atoms in air are farther apart than the atoms in a solid.
A solid has a fixed shape and volume and cannot be compressed
In solid states, the particles are unable to move and there is no free space between them. This gives them a fixed shape and volume. As they cannot move, they cannot be compressed.
Solids: they have fixed shape and fixed volume. They cannot be compressed much. They cannot flow. They do not fill their container completely. They have high density. They are heavy. Liquids: they have fixed volume but not fixed shape they take the shape of their container. They cannot be compressed much. They can flow. They do not fill their container completely. They have moderate to high density. Gases: they do not have fixed shape and volume. They can be compressed easily. They can flow. They fill their container completely. They have very low density.
Gas can be compressed easily because of space between them is big so then when compressed,the space between them get smaller. Liquid can be compressed but you can only compress it slightly since the particles are already touching Solid can't be compressed since their locked into place.
The substance is likely a liquid. Liquids have definite volume but no definite shape and take the shape of their container. Additionally, liquids are generally considered incompressible compared to gases.
A solid has a fixed shape and volume and cannot be compressed
definite shape,definite volume,cannot be compressed.
Yes, a solid does not occupy less sapce when it is pressed or squeezed. It cannot be compressed. The volume of a solid does not change. A solid has a fixed or definite volume.
that's solid state. a solid has got the following characteristics : definite shape, definite volume, and cannot be compressed
Solid - cannot be compressed have definite shape and volume Liquid- cannot be compressed have definite volume but no definite shape Gas- no definite shape and volume can be compressed Note: check all above! Done by : Justin Bieber
Liquid has a definite volume in a container.
In solid states, the particles are unable to move and there is no free space between them. This gives them a fixed shape and volume. As they cannot move, they cannot be compressed.
In a solid,particles are packed tightly to each other while the gas particles are not packed tightly. So the gas particles can be compressed and can change the volume. Solids cannot be compressed to change the volume.
Solids have a strict shape and volume. Solids do not flow and they are usually cannot be easily compressed.
A solid is a substance that cannot be compressed because its particles are closely packed together in a fixed arrangement. Solid substances also cannot flow, as their particles do not have the ability to move past each other easily.
yes...... because gas particles are far apart (this is wy it is gas and not liquid or solid) it can be compressed into a smaller space. (to a certain point)yesYes
Yes, a solid has a fixed volume because the particles are tightly packed together and cannot be compressed or expanded easily. This means that the shape of a solid remains constant unless acted upon by an external force.
