Is the solid of matter in which a material is most likely to resist compression?

Yes


What state of matter is a material most likely to resist compression?

A material is most likely to resist compression as a solid. In solids, the atoms are closely packed together in fixed positions, which makes it difficult to compress them. Liquids and gases are more easily compressible because their particles are more loosely arranged.


What is a compression wave of gas liquid or solid that is detected by your ear?

A compression wave is not matter, it is a transference of energy.


What are three ways that matter is matter?

Do you mean the states of matter? Solid, liquid and gas are the three (usual) states of matter (around here). Otherwise, matter is matter because it resists acceleration, it is attracted gravitationally, and (?) it occupies space.


What occurs when the same amount of matter occupies a smaller amount of space?

When the same amount of matter occupies a smaller space, its density increases. This can lead to an increase in pressure or temperature, depending on the system. In some cases, this can result in a phase change, such as from a gas to a liquid or a liquid to a solid.


What is one property of matter?

three properties of matter are gas,liquid,and solid


A material can be classified as a liquid if?

A liquid is a matter as it occupies space and has mass.


What type of material is the air?

Air is gas. there are 3 states of matter- solid, liquid and gas.


Why most substances expand when they change from a solid to a liquid?

During the melting the structure of the material is destroyed and the liquid is a low oredered state of matter.


When matter is pushed or squeezed the resulting force is called?

The resulting force when matter is pushed or squeezed is called compression force. This force occurs when external pressure is applied to a material, causing the particles within the material to move closer together.


What is the metric unit for mass of a liquid volume?

Mass is measured in kilograms. It doesn't matter whether the material is solid, liquid, gaseous, or in some other state of matter.


What kind is an elastic force that squeezes or pushes matter together?

The elastic force you are referring to is compression. Compression occurs when external forces push or squeeze matter together, causing the molecules to move closer to each other and creating pressure within the material. This force is often applied in situations like compressing springs or squishing a soft material.
