True. Above the critical temperature the gas cannot be liquefied at any pressure. The critical temperature of a material is the temperature above which distinct liquid and gas phases do not exist. As the critical temperature is approached, the properties of the gas and liquid phases become the same, resulting in only one phase: the supercritical fluid. Above the critical temperature a liquid cannot be formed by an increase in pressure, but with enough pressure a solid may be formed
NOUN: 1. The temperature above which a gas cannot be liquefied, regardless of the pressure applied. 2. The temperature at which a material becomes a superconductor.
The statement is true. The reason for this is that the gas particles have too high of kinetic energy (too much motion) to be forced together by pressure.
True. The temperature is called the critical temperature. Above the critical temperature it is not possible to liquefy a gas by applying only pressure. The critical temperature for water is ~374 C.

true, it is known as the critical temperature,
