Question

Use particle theory to explain why liquids and gases can flow.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Particles are still touching and held very by strong forces of attraction. ... Because the particles can move, liquids don't have a definite shape, and they can flow. Because the particles are still packed close together, liquids can't easily be compressed and keep the same volume.

Liquids and gases are called fluids because they can be made to flow, or move. In any fluid, the molecules themselves are in constant, random motion, colliding with each other and with the walls of any container. ... The motion of solids and the reaction to external forces are described by Newton's Laws of Motion.
