Question

Compare and contrast solids liquids and gases in terms of volume shape compessibility and energy

Answer 1

Answer:

solid has definite shape and volume.

liquid do not have definite shape but have definite volume.

gas do not have definite shape and definite volume.

solid have lowest compressibility out of three, liquid have more compressibility than solid but less than gases. gases have the highest compressibility out of three. Molecules in the solid phase have the least amount of energy, while gas particles have the greatest amount of energy. The temperature of a substance is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles.
