Question

explain why solid have greater densities than liquid have greater densities than gases​

Answer 1

solid have the greater density due to the intermolecular forces are strong between them as strong intermolecular forces of attraction between two molecules of solid and their tightly packed so there is density is more in the solid as compared to liquid and gas

Answer 2

Answer:

due to their relative density.

Explanation:

as we know density is defined as mass per unit volume. and so many solids have relative density more than one and so they sink in water. and many liquids have less density which float on water such as kerosene. and gas are the lightest substance among solid and liquid so they flow. this is the almost reason for your question. and this can also be the reason due to force of intermolecular space
