In which state does matter easily exert pressure on container walls?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gas

Gas particles are in continuous random motion and are separated by relatively large empty spaces. When these moving particles strike the inner walls of a container, they exert forces on those walls. The force acting over an area produces pressure. A gas therefore presses on all parts of the container, not just on its bottom, and it takes the shape and volume of the container.

Option B, gas, is correct. Solids have particles that mainly vibrate around fixed positions, so they do not easily spread throughout a container. A crystal and a metal are forms of solid matter, not separate states with the described behavior. The pressure of a gas results from countless collisions of its particles with the container walls.
