Under the influence of external pressure the particles are forced together. Under the particles' own gravitational force the particles come together. Technically speaking there must be an external force to bring the particles of matter together. Another point to be noted is that when the particles moves so close to together that it crosses its critical mass a black hole is developed. But not always.
A solid is not easy to squeeze since its particles are tightly packed together. Liquids are relatively easy to squeeze as their particles are more spread out but still have some resistance. Gases are the easiest to squeeze since their particles are far apart and can be compressed easily.
Compact and closer together, reducing the volume of the material.
Yes, during a change of state such as from a gas to a liquid or a liquid to a solid, cooling causes particles to come closer together and form more ordered structures. In a gas, the particles are more spread out and have higher kinetic energy compared to a liquid or solid where particles are closer together and have lower kinetic energy.
I think solids... I'm not 100 % sure though.
In terms of particles, "compression" means that particles move closer together.
when you push the plunger are the air particles closer together in the syringe or in the bubble
No, the particles in a solid are usually closer together than the particles in a liquid. In a solid, the particles are tightly packed and have a fixed position, while in a liquid, the particles are more loosely packed and can move around.
The gas particles inside the mat will be compressed as the gymnast lands on it with force. This compression causes the gas particles to move closer together and increase in pressure. Once the gymnast bounces off the mat, the gas particles will expand back to their original positions.

All gases can be compressed because the particles are not close together and when you compress it, it brings the particles closer together. Liquids however, have particles which are close to each other so they can't be compressed.
Particles in the air are closer together in solid objects and liquids, where the particles are tightly packed. In these states, particles are closely bonded and have less space between them compared to the surrounding air.

The solid particles are closer.
