Solution

The correct option is C Compressibility

Gas particles have a large spaces between their molecules. This implies that they have very low densities. They are compressible and large volumes of gases can be confined to the small space inside a small cylinder when pressurised.

Inflammability refers to the ease with which something catches fire.

Gases have no fixed shape; they occupy all the space provided to them.
