Q. Matter around us can exist in three different states namely solid, liquid and gas. The correct order of their compressibility is

A

Solid<Gas<Liquid

B

Gas<Liquid<Solid

C

Solid<Liquid<Gas

D

Liquid<Gas<Solid

Solution:

The atoms and molecules in gases are much more spread out than in solids and liquids.
They vibrate and move freely at high speeds.
A gas will fill any container, but if the container is not sealed, the gas will escape.
Gas can be compressed much more easily than Solid or liquid.
