Answer:
In gases, the molecule has hardly any influence on any other molecule and can be brought too close to other molecules. But in solids, there is a negligible intermolecular space and cannot be brought further close.
Similar is the case with liquids. Thus, gases are highly compressible than solids or liquids.

There is no space between the individual particles, so they cannot pack together. The kinetic-molecular theory explains why gases are more compressible than either liquids or solids. Gases are compressible because most of the volume of a gas is composed of the large amounts of empty space between the gas particles.
