Question

Are the particles in a gas farther apart or closer together than

the particles in a liquid? Use your answer to explain each of the
following general observations:
(a) Gases are more compressible than liquids.
(b) Gases have lower viscosities than liquids.
(c) After thorough stirring, all gas mixtures are solutions.
(d) The density of a substance in the gas state is lower than in
the liquid state.

Answer 1
