a gas can be compressed easily because its particles are very far apart and there are large spaces between them.( which can be reduced by compression ). one of the important property of gas is it has high compressibility rate.
they can be compressed into very small volumes by applying large pressures.
example :
due to its high compressibility ,fairly large mass of a gas can be put in a small metal cylinder by compression.such gas cylinders can be transported conveniently from one place to another.
the cooking gas (liquefied petroleum gas,LPG) which we use in our homes is a compressed gas.

Compressibility in gases is an important thermodynamic property.
- Since the bulk of a gas's volume is made up of vast quantities of vacant scopes among the gas particles, thus they are compressible.
- It is a useful thermodynamic property for accounting for real-world actions in the ideal gas rule.
- Gas has a high compressibility rate, which is a significant property. By applying high pressures, they can be compacted into smaller amounts or weights.
- For example - Gaseous form of LPG and CNG gas can be accumulated in cylinders by compression. These cylinders can be then transported easily.
