Answer to Problem 1SAQ

Solution: (a) Gas is compressible.

Explanation of Solution

The molecules of gases are not rigid. They have large space between them, more as compared to liquids and solids. Due to this space, gases can be compressed by applying pressure. Due to this state of gas, it changes from gas to liquid.
