write important characteristics of solid liquid and gases
Answers
Answer:
hope it be helpful to you
Here's your answer!
• Characteristics of Solid, Liquid and Gas are :-
• SOLID (Most stable state) :-
» They have definite mass, volume and shape.
» Intermolecular forces of attraction are strong.
» The distance between two molecules is small.
» The molecules show only vibrational motion, because of small distance between particles.
» They can't be compressed and are rigid.
» Thermal energy is low.
» Solids are further classified into Crystalline and Amorphous solids.
• LIQUID :-
» They have definite volume but not definite shape because it takes the shape of container
» Intermolecular forces of attraction are comparitively less than solids.
» The distance between two molecules is comparitively larger than solids.
» The molecules show both translational and vibrational motion.
» They are incompressible hence, independent of pressure.
» Thermal / Kinetic energy is comparitively more.
• GAS :-
» They neither have definite volume nor definite shape as molecules in gaseous state show random motion.
» Intermolecular forces of attraction are very less. Hence, the molecules move in accidental motion.
» The itermolecular distance is the most in this state.
» The molecules show translational, rotational and vibrational motion in this state.
» They are compressible, hence when under great heat and pressure undergoes change of state.
» Thermal energy is the most because particles have fierce movements.
