the force of attraction between the particles gases is weak
force of attraction between the particles in liquid is a bit strong
force of attraction between the particles in solid is strongest
this is the right answers,,,,,dont worry

Wiki User
∙ 13y agoBecause there is not enough room in the particles for them to move around like Liquids and Gases!
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoBecause gases particles are loosely packed so there is a place for vibration of particles.

What are some examples of how gases are different from liquids and solids?
I can only tell you that gases are does not have a difinite shape and volume . E.g air / nitrogen / carbon dioxide / water vapour / . . .
What is the movement of gases or liquids from a cooler spot to a warmer spot?
Convection is the movement of gases or liquids from a cooler spot to a warmer spot.
What happens to the volume of solids liquids and gases when they are cool?
they all contract.
How are gasses and liquids similar in shape and volume?
ANSWER unlike solids, both liquids and gases can change their shape to fit the container in which they are held. however, gases can also change volume unlike liquids.
Does diffusion occur slow or fast?
Gases, Liquids, and then Solids.
What is diffusion in liquid and in gas?
Gases the most, then liquids. Solids generally don't diffuse.
Can diffusion mix?
Of course, especially liquids and gases, but even solids, especially at high temperature

yes, this is mostly true.
Does radiation happen in solids liquids or gases?
Radiation can occur in a vacumn.
Does diffusion happen best in liquids?
The rate of diffusion is fastest is gasses, but as we can't see the gases ,it can be seen it liquids, but in liquids the rate of diffusion is comparatively slower than gasses and it can be easily observed....
What has the author Frank E Jaumot written?
Frank E. Jaumot has written: 'A bibliography of diffusion of gases, liquids and solids in solids, 1890 to 1955' -- subject(s): Abstracts, Bibliography, Diffusion

When and where does diffusion happen?
diffusion can happen either in gases or liquids. it happens when a high concentration of something appears and it spreads out until an equilibrium is reached.
