Question

If salt and sugar not appear to have have a fixed shape then why do we call them solid

Answer 1

Answer:It is because the sugar is so small that it takes the shape of a container, but they are solids , they have fixed shape. Explanation:substances usually have very tiny crystals which have a rigid structure and fix packed particles. Thus, the crystals are actually solids and thus the salt and sugar as a whole of a number of such crystals are referred to as solids.
