Since thermal energy dominates in gases, compressibility is high in the case of gases. Gas molecules can move apart because of this energy, which makes it easier for them to compress when bundled together because their relative separation is less.

Even with pressure, it is difficult to compress a solid. The reason for this is that the solid's component particles are so tightly packed that when extremely high pressure is applied, either they do not move closer or do.

The change in liquid volume brought on by a unit change in pressure is known as compressibility. Typically, it is believed that there is no yield stress present in the liquid.
