Why is a gas easier to compress than a liquid or a solid?Group of answer choicesThe volume of a gas’s particles is small compared to the overall volume of the gas.Its volume increases more under pressure than an equal volume of liquid does.The space between gas particles is much less than the space between liquid or solid particles.Its volume increases more under pressure than an equal volume of solid does.

Explain, in terms of molecules, why it is possible to compress a gas, but not a liquid.

Which of the following is NOT true about the compressibility of gases?*The large relative distances between particles in a gas means that there is considerable empty space between the particles.The assumption that particles in a gas are relatively far apart explains gas compressibility.Compressibility is a measure of how much the volume of matter decreases under pressure.Liquids generally have higher compressibilities relative to gases.

How are solids, liquids, and gases similar? How are they different? Consider volume, shape, movement of particles, amount of energy, attractive forces, space between particles, and compressibility.

Match the explanation to the appropriate statement.Liquids are able to flow...Solids have a fixed shape...Gases can be compressed...Possible Answers...because the particle are, on average, far apart so there is space for particles to be pushed closer together....because the particles only store enough energy to vibrate around a fixed position....because the particles have enough energy stored to move past each other.I DON'T KNOWRESETSUBMIT ANSWER
