Question

According to the kinetic theory of gases, a gas can be compressed much more than a liquid or solid because gas particles move rapidly. the particles of a gas are very far apart. a gas is composed of very small particles. gas particles move faster when the temperature increases. gas particles do not attract or repel one another.

Answer 1

I think the correct answer would be the option 2. According to the kinetic theory of gases, a gas can be compressed much more than a liquid or solid because the distance of the gas particles are very far. So, there are more spaces which we can exert pressure to get the particles nearer to each other.
