Best defination for states of matter of solid, liquid and gas
Answers
Answer:
Solid- This is a state of matter which has definite shape,mass and volume. Compressibility is negligible. Density of molecules is high.
Liquid- A state of matter which has definite mass and volume but no definite shape. Compressibility is very small. Density of molecules is less than solid state.
Gas- A state of matter, which has difinite mass, but no definite shape and no definite volume. Highly compressible. Very low density.
Best defination for states of matter of solid, liquid and gas.
There are three states of matter.
i) Solid,
ii) Liquid, and
iii) Gas
➤ Solid has a fixed volume and mass.
➤ It has rigidity.
➤ It can't be compressed. (Exception - sponge)
➤ It doesn't have a property of fluidity.
➤ The particles present in a solid are highly packed.
➤ For example :- Table, glass, book.
➤ Liquid has a fixed volume and mass.
➤ It doesn't have a property of rigidity.
➤ Liquid cannot be compressed much.
➤ It has a property of fluidity.
➤ Its particles are loosely packed.
➤ For example :- Milk, oil, water.
➤ Gas doesn't have a fixed volume.
➤ It doesn't have a property of rigidity
➤ It can be easily compressed.
➤ It has a property of fluidity.
➤ Its particles are continuously moving.
➤ For example :- air, vapour, steam.
