gas is the matter that is highly compressible ..it is also present in earths surface as large quantities

Answered by itemderby

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

In gases particles are held by weak Vanderwaal forces. That is, the particles are moving far away from each other.

Also, gases are more compressible than liquids whereas solids are in-compressible in nature. It is also known that Earth's atmosphere is surrounded by various gases.

Thus, we can conclude that gaseous state of matter is highly compressible, is made of particles moving independently of each other, and is present in large quantities near Earth’s surface.
