Which is NOT true about particles of solid?
A. Solid particles vibrate
B. Solid particles have compressed particles
C. Solid particles do not follow the shape of any container
D. Forces holding solid particles together are weak
Answers
D. Forces holding solid particles together are weak.
Reason:
- Solid particles vibrate due to their kinetic energy.
- Solid particles have compressed particles.
- Solid particles do not follow the shape of any container,but liquid particles do follow.
- Forces holding solid particles together are not weak, they are stronger than that of the gases and liquid.
QUESTION :
Which is NOT true about particles of solid?
OPTIONS EXPLAINATION :
A. Solid particles vibrate - In a solid, the attractive forces keep the particles together tightly enough so that the particles do not move past each other. Their vibration is related to their kinetic energy. In the solid the particles vibrate in place. ... In most cases, there are essentially no attractive forces between particles.
B. Solid particles have compressed particles - Something is usually described as a solid if it can hold its own shape and is hard to compress (squash). The particles in most solids are closely packed together. Even though the particles are locked into place and cannot move or slide past each other, they still vibrate a tiny bit.
C. Solid particles do not follow the shape of any container - Because the particles don't move, solids have a definite shape and volume, and can't flow. Because the particles are already packed closely together, solids can't easily be compressed. Because there are lots of particles in a small volume, solids are dense. Powdered solids cannot take the shape of their container.
D. Forces holding solid particles together are weak - FALSE, THEY HAVE A HIGHER ATTRACTIVE FORCE
ANSWER : d. Forces holding solid particles together are weak is false
