Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To answer the question "Gases expand .............. than liquids," we need to analyze the behavior of molecules in both states of matter when they are heated. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Molecular Arrangement**: - In liquids, the molecules are closely packed but still have some space to move around. They are connected to each other loosely, which allows them to slide past one another. - In gases, the molecules are much farther apart compared to liquids. They are not connected strongly at all and move freely in all directions. ...
