Question

Gases expand maximum and solids contract maximum.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Gases have weak inter-particle attraction, so gases expand more than solids and liquids, so gases expand maximum. But in solids, there is no inter-particle space between the particles to contract because there is a strong force of attraction between the particles of a solid which holds them together in fixed positions.

Concluding statement

Gases have maximum expansion ability but solids do not have maximum ability to be contracted. Therefore, the given statement is false.
