Answer:

The molecules in gases are very apart from each other. Therefore, gases neither have a fixed volume nor a fixed shape. For instance as in solids, it has a fixed shape and a fixed volume because the molecules in a solid are closely and tightly packed together

Gases have no definite volume or shape.

The air that you breathe, the helium in a balloon, and the neon

inside the tube in a neon light are gases. A gas is a substance with no

definite volume and no definite shape. Solids and liquids have

volumes that do not change easily. A gas, on the other hand, has a volume that changes to match the volume of its container.

Gas Composition

The molecules in a gas are very far apart compared with the molecules

in a solid or a liquid. The amount of space between the molecules in a

gas can change easily. If a rigid container—one that cannot change its

shape—has a certain amount of air and more air is pumped in, the

volume of the gas does not change. However, there is less space between

the molecules than there was before. If the container is opened, the

molecules spread out and mix with the air in the atmosphere.

As you saw, gas molecules in a container can be compared to a

group of people in a room. If the room is small, there is less space

among people. If the room is large, people can spread out so that

there is more space among them. When people leave the room, they

go in all different directions and mix with all of the other people in

the surrounding area.

Contrast the amount of space among the particles of a gas with

the amount of space among the particles of a liquid or solid
