The molecules are closed and compact. (option D)
- Molecules in a solid are closely packed.
- Since they are closely packed, they cannot move from their place instead they vibrate in their mean position.
- Their attractive forces between the molecules are very strong.
- Molecules in a solid will have a definite shape and volume since they are a closed structure.
- These molecules are bound together by covalent or ionic bonds.
