Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary difference between liquids and gases? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand that both liquids and gases are states of matter.
  • Step 2: Know that particles are the tiny pieces that make up liquids and gases.
  • Step 3: In liquids, particles are close together and can slide past each other.
  • Step 4: In gases, particles are far apart and move freely.
  • Step 5: Because gas particles are far apart, gases can be compressed easily (squished into a smaller space).
  • Step 6: Since liquid particles are close together, liquids cannot be compressed easily.
