Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Gases are highly compressible because of the large distances between their molecules. They also form homogeneous mixtures regardless of the nature of gases due to their ability to mix easily. Additionally, gases have relatively large distances between their molecules. However, their volume is not static and can change with temperature and pressure. The density of gases varies depending on their temperature, pressure, and molecular weight, so E is incorrect.
