what is rigidity and compressibility
Answers
Answer:
Rigidity: It is the property of matter to resist the change of its shape. Compressibility: It is the property of matter in which its volume is decreased by applying force. Fluidity: Matter can flow.
Explanation:
Rigidity
It is the strongest force of attraction between particles and this property makes the solid rigid. Rigidity gives the perfect shape to solids, the particles in the solid are tightly packed. Solid does not get deformed easily by applying extra pressure.
Compressibility
Compressibility is mostly observed in gases. A lot of space between particles, a gas can be compressed to a higher extent. Solids have the least compressibility and liquids have little compressibility because of the least space between their particles.

Answer:
Rigidity - It is the property of to resist the change of its shape.
Compressibility = It is the property of matter in which it's volume is decreased by applying force.
