The particles of a gas are close together and arranged in an orderly pattern.
true or false
False. The particles of a gas are far apart and have no definite arrangement or pattern.
False.
The statement is false. The particles of a gas are not close together nor are they arranged in an orderly pattern. In a gas, particles have a lot of space between them and they move randomly and freely. This is in contrast to solids, where particles are tightly packed and ordered, and liquids, where particles are close together but not in an ordered pattern.
