Which physical state of matter exhibits the greatest change in volume (the amount space the atoms take up when the substance changes state)?
Which of the following is not a characteristic of a solid?
It is not free-flowing.
It can change its volume and shape.
It is not easily compressible.
It expands when heated.
Which state of matter has vibrational motion only?
Why does a liquid assume the shape of the part of the container that it occupies?
A gas is compressible because there is little free space between the particles.
T or F
Which is a characteristic of a gas?
Particles can't move past one another, spreading out to take the shape of the container.
There is little free space between particles, which allows compression.
Particles can move past one another, spreading out to take the shape of the container

1. gas
2. it can change its volume and shape
3. solid(think so)
4.liquid has fixed volume but no fixed shape. therefore it takes the shape of the container.
5. false (it has maximum space)
6.3rd point
7.1st point
