MCQQuestion

If a sealed container of liquid and a sealed container of gas are both subjected to a significant increase in external pressure, analyze which substance would experience a more substantial percentage change in volume and explain why.

A

The liquid, because its molecules are already close, resisting further compression more effectively.

B

The gas, because its molecules are widely spaced, allowing for greater compression.

C

Both would experience the same percentage change in volume due to uniform pressure distribution.

D

Neither would experience a significant change as they are in sealed containers.
