Answers
Answer:
solid has a definite shape and volume.
Solids in general have higher density.
In solids, intermolecular forces are strong.
Diffusion of a solid into another solid is extremely slow.
Solids have high melting points.
✯ Properties of Solid :
- Listed below are few Properties of Solid :
➣ In solids, particles are tightly or closely packed.
➢ Solids are incompressible, meaning the constituent particle is arranged close to each other and because of that, there is negligible space between the constituent particle.
➣ Solids are rigid, due to lack of space between the constituent particles which make it rigid or fixed.
➢ Solids have definite mass, volume and shape due to which it has a compact arrangement of constituent particles.
➣ The intermolecular distance between molecules is short.
➢ The rate of diffusion in solids is very low.
- Example of Solids : eraser, book, ice, pencil etc.
