Question

ES
2. On the basis of kinetic theory of matter, explain:
(a) why solids have a definite volume and definite shape?​

Answer 1

Answer:

because their molecules are closely packed to each other.

Answer 2

Because their particles are very closely packed. Their particles have a very little space between them. Since, they are closely packed, they have a very high force of attraction. That’s why solids have a definite volume and definite shape.
