Question

1. Give characteristics of solid state.​

Answer 1

Answer:

The solids are characterized by incompressibility, rigidity and mechanical strength. The molecules, atoms or ions in solids are closely packed, i.e., they are held together by strong forces and cannot move about atrandom. Thus solids have definite volume, shape, slow diffusion, low vapour pressure and possess the unique property of being rigid. Such solids are known as true solids.

Answer 2

1. A solid has a definite shape and volume
2. The density of solid is high
3. the melting point and boiling point are also high
4. solid are incompressible
5. A solid cannot flow
6. solid expand or contract very little on being heated or cooled
