Gaseous phase exert more pressure on container.
Explanation:
Pressure:
It is the force exerted by the substance on its container.
Mathematical expression:
P = F/A
P = pressure
F = force
A = area
We know that there are phases of matter solid liquid and gas.
Gases don't have definite volume and shape and take the shape and volume of container in which it present. Molecule of gases randomly move everywhere and occupy all available space. The molecules of gas randomly move collide with each other and also the wall of container their kinetic energy also increased because of this collision and pressure is produced
While in case of liquid molecules are packed and they can not move freely thus did not exert pressure like gaseous molecules.
In case of solids molecules are tightly packed and form more compact structure. They can not move thus did not exert pressure to the wall of container.
Properties of gases:
Molecule of gases randomly move everywhere and occupy all available space.
Gases don't have definite volume and shape and take the shape and volume of container in which it present.
Their densities are very low as compared to the liquid and solids.
Gas molecules are at long distance from each other therefore by applying pressure gases can be compressed.
The very weak inter molecular forces are present between gas molecules.
Properties of Liquid:
Liquid have definite volume but don,t have definite shape.
Their densities are high as compared to the gases but low as compared to the solids.
In liquid, molecules are close to each other and have greater inter molecular forces as compared to the gas molecules.
Properties of solids:
Solids have definite volume and shape.
In solids molecules are tightly pack and very close to each other.
Their melting and boiling point are every high.
The densities of solids are also very high as compared to the liquid and gas.
There are very strong inter molecular forces are present between solid molecules.
