Question

with the help of an activity show that gases are more easily compressible than liquid and solid

Answer 1

liquid have high density so they compress least
but gases have less density than liquid and solid

Answer 2

Answer:

Material Required: Three 10ml syringes, cork, water.

Procedure:

1. Take three 10 ml syringes and close their nozzle  by inserting them in a rubber cork.
2. Remove the piston from all the syringes.
3. Allow the common salt to fill space inside the  first syringe
4. Fill the second syringes with water.
5. Third Syringe with air.
6. Now insert the pistons back into the syringes after  applying a little of vaseline for smooth movement.
7. Now try to compress by applying pressure on the  piston of each syringe and record observations.

Observations:

The piston moves easily in third syringe in which air  is filled as shown in Figure.

The piston does not move easily in second syringe  in which water is filled. The piston moves very slowly  in the first syringe in which solid common salt is filled.

Inference

Gases are more easily compressed as compared to liquids  and liquids are compressed more easily than solids.
