Solids and liquids are virtually incompressible whereas gases are compressed all the time, This is true because of their properties of shape volume properties where, Solids have a definite shape and volume, no definite shape and volume.
What are the properties of gas and solids?

- Because their atoms are tightly held there is little or no space to compress to.
