A glass has a random arrangement of particles. They are often called amorphous, which means without shape. Contrast with a crystal, which has a definite arrangement of particles.
crystals differ from solid matter from the fact that there is definite arrangement of the various constituting particles in the three dimensiomal space i.e, in the space lattice and there exist electrostatic forces of attraction between the various particles but in case of solids there can be definite arrangement of particles but the forces of interaction are generally metallic, covalent or any other
cleavage is an isotropic behaviur discuss
In a solid state, particles vibrate because there's not a lot of space for them to move in. A solid has a definite shape and volume. In a liquid state, particles flow past one another because there is no definite shape but there's a definite volume. In a gas state, particles move really fast because there's no definite shape or volume.

The state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape
Most solids do not have an orderly arrangement of particles: these are non-crystalline solids.
Soil Structure.
solid have definite shape , definite volume and close together particles
a gas have no definite shape so the particles can move around freely but in a liquid ,which has a definite shape, particles move around but are restricted
the arrangement of particles in a pancake are that when you prepare the pancake with the ingredients it turns into a liquid and then when you cook it change into a solid
solid
has definite volume
