17. Compare solid, iquid and gas considering the folowingproperties.i) Compressibilityii) Packing of particlesiii) Shape |
|
Answer» 1)Solids and liquids have very little free space between particles. So they are not easily compressible. ... Gases, on the other hand, are easily compressible. They have a lot of free space between particles.2)Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.3)A gas and a liquid will change shape to fit the shape of their container. A gas will change volume to fit the volume of the container. In general, solids are denser than liquids, which are denser than gases. . The particles in the solid are touching with very little space between them |
