Question

A wooden block and chalk both are solids. Which is easier to break and why?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The particles of matter have force acting between them. This force keeps the particles together. The strength of this force of attraction is lesser in chalk, hence it could be broken easily into smaller pieces.

Answer 2

Answer:

Here the intermolecular forces of attraction between the particles are identified or mentioned. Since in chalk the particles forces between the chalk particles are not so strong hence they can be easily broken up while the intermolecular force between the particles of wooden block is stronger. Hence chalk is easier to break.
