Solution

The correct option is A
Gases are not rigid

Gases are highly compressible and have highest diffusivity. As gases does not possess definite shape so they are not rigid.

Gases occupy more space than solids and liquids

Gases diffuse rapidly because the particles in the gases can freely move in all directions and there is lot of intermolecular space in gases
