hi
here is your answer
Hope it will help. .
Answer:
Property | Solid | Liquid | Gas
1. Shape and volume
Solid have a definite shape as well as definite volume.
Liquid have a definite volume but no definite shape.
Gas have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
2. Compressibility
Solids are completely incompressible.
Liquids are almost incompressible.
Gases are highly compressible.
3. Rigidity
Solids possess rigidity.
Liquids can flow, therefore they possess fluidity which is lower than that of gases
Gases flow more easily than liquids and thus have the highest fluidity.
4. Energy
Solid particles have minimum energy.
Liquid particles have energy higher than those of solids.
Gas particles have highest energy.
5. Density
Solid have high density.
Liquid density is lower than those of solids but much higher than those of gases.
Gas generally have very low densities.
6. Diffusion
Solid normally do not show the property of diffusion.
Liquid show the property of diffusion.
Gas diffuse very rapidly.
