Gasses do not have a fixed shape or volume, as the particles are not connected to one another. So they spread out, and move away from each other, completely filling its container.

Gases have high kinetic energy and move freely in all directions, allowing them to completely fill their container. In liquids, particles have less kinetic energy and are more attracted to each other, resulting in a fixed volume and shape that allows them to only partly fill their container.

Because people think it's always right. But its not because other people answer it, its a 40%-60% there right meaning there always going to be 40% unless someone goes to ask all the questions people say and say ture or false. Wrong or Right.

Gases completely fill their container while liquids partly fill their containers. This occurs because the particles in gases spread out from each other, while liquid particles cling to each other.

It is because in a gas, the particles are very spread out, their attraction is not as great as in a liquid or a solid. Since they are not affected as much by this force that keeps particles together, they can move more freely, unlike a solid, where the particles only vibrate. Also, because of diffusion, the particles seek to be in equilibrium with one another, so they will spread out to achieve that equilibrium.

a gas is like a liquid so it will fill any container you put it in, a solid won't because its a matter.

A gas completely fills any container you put it in because since it doesn't have a definite volume or shape, it is able to be expanded or compressed

A gas has no fixed volume or shape; therefore diffusing and filling the empty spaces. Now what you have is the container is completely filled with the gas.

The reason why a gas fulls a container because it molecules are not stable will never take the shape of any container.

Gases completely fill their container while liquids partly fill their containers This happens because?

The bonds between the atoms in a gas are weaker than in a liquid. All atoms are vibrating. In a gas this kinetic energy overcomes the bonds between atoms and allows them to spread apart and "fill" the container. This is why a smell "travels", carried on the wind for example.
