Question
If the tops were removed from the cylinders, the following would happen:

- The solid would fly out of the container
- The liquid would fly out of the container.
- The gas would fly out of the container.
- They all would fly out of the container.
Hint:
Depends on intermolecular forces of attraction.
The correct answer is: The gas would fly out of the container.
- States of matter depend on two factors: intermolecular forces of attraction and intermolecular space.
- In solids, intermolecular forces of attraction are very high even if the top is removed particles won't fly.
- In liquids, intermolecular forces of attraction are less than in solids but they won't fly on the removal of the top.
- In gas intermolecular forces of attraction are negligible, on the removal of the top particles would fly away.
