Which statement best describes the arrangement and motion of particles in a gas compared to a liquid?

A Gas particles are closer together and move slower than liquid particles.
B Gas particles are further apart and move randomly and rapidly, unlike liquid particles which are closer and flow.
C Gas particles have a fixed position and vibrate, similar to solid particles.
D Gas particles are tightly packed and flow past each other, just like liquid particles.

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

In a gas, particles are widely spaced and move freely and chaotically. In a liquid, particles are closer together but can still slide past each other, giving liquids their fluid properties.
