Which of the following statements is true regarding the particle structure of liquids? Particles of a liquid are--
extremely close together, so the liquid cannot easily change its shape
relatively close together, so they cannot be easily be compressed
very far apart, so they have plenty of room to move around
Which of the following statements best describes gases? Gases--
cannot easily change their volume by compression
maintain a constant shape, regardless of the container
can change shape and volume depending on the container
have a fixed size and shape, regardless of the container
Liquids are not easily compressible. Which characteristics of the structure of liquids makes this true? In a liquid, particles--
are too close together to move any closer.
have freedom and space of their container.
take the shape of their container.
always fill the volume of their container.
Which of the following is true regarding the particle nature of a solid? Particles in a solid--
move very little, so it cannot easily change its shape.
are relatively far apart, so it is highly compressible.
are in continual motion, and can slide past each other.
are very far apart, so it can easily change its shape

If the tops were removed from the cylinders, the following would happen:
