Answer:
firm and stable in shape; not liquid or fluid.
"the stream was frozen solid"
"a solid figure with six plane faces"
A solid is a sample of matter that retains its shape and density when not confined. ... Some solids, called crystalline solids, tend to fracture along defined surfaces that have a characteristic shape depending on the arrangement of, and the forces among, the atoms or molecules in the sample.

- Solidity is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being liquid, gas, and plasma).
- The molecules in a solid are packed firmly and have the lowest kinetic energy.
- The two qualities that constitute a solid are its structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to its surface.
- Unlike liquids, solids do not flow to take on the shape of their containers, nor do they expand to fill the whole volume available, as gases do.
- The atoms of a solid are bound to one another in either a regular geometric lattice or an uneven geometric lattice (non-crystalline solids like plain ice) (an amorphous solid such as common window glass).
- Solids cannot be crushed at low pressure because the molecules in a gas are loosely packed.
