Why do gases have high compressibility?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: There is a large amount of empty space between gas particles

Gas particles have a large amount of empty space between them. When pressure is applied, the particles can move closer into this empty space, so the volume of a gas can decrease considerably and gases are highly compressible. Option A is more characteristic of solids, where particles are closely packed. Exam tip: greater interparticle space generally means greater compressibility.
