Answer:

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.

Energy is released by a gas when it is compressed

Explanation:

The kinetic molecular theory establishes that gases are composed of molecules. These molecules of gas are far apart from each other hence there is a considerable empty space between the gas molecules. As a result of these empty spaces between gas molecules, it is possible to compress a gas.

Compressibility is defined as a measure of how much the volume of matter decreases under pressure. When a gas is compressed, work is done on the gas and energy is evolved hence the gas heats up.

What would happen to our solar system if the Sun had an even greater mass than it currently does?
motikmotik

Answer: If the Sun had an even greater mass then it currently does, it would have a larger gravitational pull and since it's heat would be closer to Earth, both by magnitude and gravity, life on Earth wouldn't be possible and life on Mars would be reality. Also, when the sun would explode, it would have a larger supernova and possibly create a white dwarf (something that only happens to red supergiant stars when they die), with a gravitational force so strong it wold have two beams of light coming out it's north and south poles (like a black hole).

What is the differences between amorphous solid and crystalline solid​
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Crystalline solids have well-defined edges and faces, diffract x-rays, and tend to have sharp melting points.

 In contrast, amorphous solids have irregular or curved surfaces, do not give well-resolved x-ray diffraction patterns, and melt over a wide range of temperatures.
