In a gas, the molecules are free to move around and are relatively far apart from each other, so you can compress the gas and move the molecules closer to one another. In a solid, the molecules are already touching and so can't be moved any closer to each other.
The expeiment is simple: under an applied pressure the volume of a gas decrease.
Amorphous solids are generally more compressible than crystalline solids because they lack a regular atomic arrangement, allowing their structure to deform more easily under pressure. Crystalline solids have a well-defined lattice structure that makes them more resistant to compression.
Generally solids are denser than gas and liquids.
The motion of particles in a solid are much slower than those in the gas. Gaseous particles are very energetic and highly kinetic.
No, molecule movement is greatest in gases, followed by liquids, and then solids. In a solid, molecules are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions, whereas in gases, molecules move freely and rapidly.
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

No, Saturn is a gas giant. It has no solid form (other than VERY HIGHLY pressurized gases.), so no volcanoes.
Gases are the only ones that are compressible in fact. They are compressible because the atoms in gases are very far apart, and when you compress them, their atoms can fill up these spaces.
Gases particles move through and faster than the particles in a solid
cause,the particles of solid is closer than the gas!
Gases particles move through and faster than the particles in a solid
The molecules of gases are farther one from another than in liquids. But liquids are also compressive although in a very less scale than gases. Put some liquid in a syringe, put your finger on the output side and press the piston. You'll notice that the liquid is slightly compressed.

Gases are compressible because there is large amounts of space between the gas particles which allow them to be compressed together under pressure. For liquids there is very little space between the particles so when put under pressure their is very little visable compression. And for solids there is no space between the particles so there is no compression possible.
Solids are not completely incompressible, but they are much less compressible than liquids and gases. This means that solids can be compressed slightly under high pressure, but their volume does not change significantly compared to liquids and gases.
