Question

Why different metals possess different hardness?​

Answer 1

Answer:

it is because some metals like mercury have a more space between their molecules so their strength is low. At the same time gold is very hard because thee space between molecules also known as inter molecular space is very less so it is compact and very hard

Explanation:

SO WE CAN SAY THAT DIFFERENT METALS POSSESS DIFFERENT STRENGTH BECAUSE OF THEIR VARYING INTERMOLECULAR SPACE i.e SPACE BETWEEN THE MOLECULES!!
