Question

Sugar is when kept in a jar takes the shape of the jar. Are they solids now? Need explanation

Answer 1

When we put sugar in a jar, it is a cluster of many sugar crystals. That's why they take the shape of the jar.
but if u see any single crystal of the sugar, u will observe that it is still solid.
It remains in its shape even after putting it in the jar

Answer 2

When sugar and common salt are kept in different jars, they take the shape of the jars, still they are considered as solid .

Reason:

--->As, solids are rigid form of matter and have  fixed  shape and volume.
---->even though , common salt and sugar crystals when poured in any container, they take the shape of container, still each granule of common salt and sugar retain their fixed shape and volume .

Conclusion:
Hence they are considered as Solids.
