Question

Sponge can be pressed easily, still it is called a solid not a gas why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sponge is a solid.

Explanation:

The presence of small pores in the sponge allow air to fill in it which gives it its fixed shape when no pressure is applied. But when the same sponge is compressed, the air between the pores moves out causing it to change its shape.

Answer 2

Answer:

a sponge has tiny minute holes in it. that is why we are able to compress it when we press it the air present inside the sponge is expelled out. hence it is called a solid not a gas
