What is a naturally made solid that has a regular arrangement of particles?
Crystals, for one. Densely packed carbon, like diamond, have a rigid, extremely long chain of molecules.
Describe the movements of molecules particles of liquid when liquids mix with other liquids?
When two liquids that will mix with each other are placed together, one will diffuse throughout the other but at a much slower rate than in the case with gases. This property is due to the arrangement of the particles in a liquid as opposed to the arrangement of molecules in a gas.
How should students be placed in a room to represent the arrangement of particles in a solid?
Students should be placed as closely as possible to each other.
Are particles in a solid closely packed and motionless?

What is the difference between solids and liquids based on their atomic?
The difference between solids and liquids at the atomic level is primarily in the degree of freedom of motion that the particles have. In a solid the particles are closely packed together and have very limited movement meaning that the solid maintains a fixed shape. In a liquid the particles have more freedom of movement meaning that the liquid can take the shape of its container. Solids: Particles are closely packed together and have very limited movement the solid maintains a fixed shape. Liquids: Particles have more freedom of movement the liquid can take the shape of its container.

Why are solids incompressible?
The arrangement of particles are packed together.
Would a gas liquid or solid be most affected by the volume of its container?
Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas.Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can move about within a liquid, but they are packed densely enough that volume is maintained.Gaseous matter is composed of particles packed so loosely that it has neither a defined shape nor a defined volume. A gas can be compressed.
Are the particles of a gas packed closely together so that they don't have as much movement as the particles of a solid or liquid?
In a gas, the particles are much less densely packed than the particles of a solid or liquid, and consequently they move much more freely.
What holds the sand particles on the moon as there is very less gravity?
The particles on the moon are densely packed and only small amounts of the particles fly up and away as dust.
What is solid in terms of arrangement of particles?
Anything that has particles that are closely packed together. Examples: * A cup * A bowl * A lightbulb * A faucet * A microwave * A shirt
What are the particles in liquid solid and gas?
the particle arrangements of a liquid is that the particles and atoms are a bit separated from each other. In a solid, they are closely packed together. In a gas they have no particular particle arrangement and are very far apart.
The definitions for the three states of matter?
Solid - particles are tightly packed, in a regular pattern Liquid - particles are close together, with no regular arrangement Gas - particles are extremely far apart, with no regular arrangement http://www.chem.purdue.edu/gchelp/liquids/character.html
What does densely packed together mean?
densely means to collide and packed together means to be close. so put it together "collided and close".
Do solids take the shape of it container?
No they don't because they have tightly packed particles. But liquids can take the shape of their container.
What is different from gas and solid?
Solids: Regular arrangement of particles Tightly packed particles Vibrate about a fixed point (unless at 0 degrees Kelvin) As they increase in temperature, the vibrations become larger Solids have a fixed shape and volume Gases: Randomly moving particles Very fast moving particles Particles are very far apart Gases fill container As they increase in temperature, particles move more quickly
Why do you feel weightlessness in water?
because the particles are more densely packed in water so they support you more and hold some of your weight, making you feel weightless
