Question

Why are solids are incompressible ​

Answer 1

Answer:

because inter particle spaces are less and inter particle forces are strongest

Answer 2

Solids are comparatively dense, stiff, and incompressible due to strong intermolecular forces that basically lock the molecules in place.

Reason for solids are incompressible :

• Because It has fixed places and can only move about its mean position because the component components in solids are densely packed and the bonding among these atoms is quite strong.

• Solids are comparatively dense, stiff, and incompressible due to strong intermolecular forces that basically lock the molecules in place.

• Liquids, like solids, are generally thick and incompressible, but, like gases, flow quickly to conform to the shape of their containers.
