solid- atoms more tightly packed specific shape and volume
liquid- atoms slightly less tightly packed, no specific shape, specific volume
solid and gas differ from each other simply because their atoms are differrent in composition.Atoms of a solid is compacted to each other.While the atoms of a gas are far apart from ech other sothat it can move freely. Dominique Odencia
Solid.
One of 'em is so cold it's turned solid. Water undergoes no chemical change when it freezes.
Rain- liquid hail- solid sleet- liquid snow - solid is there any other types of precipitaiton?
In a liquid, particles are more loosely packed and able to move past each other, whereas in a solid, particles are tightly packed and vibrate in fixed positions. The intermolecular forces in a liquid are weaker than in a solid, allowing the particles to flow and take the shape of their container.
They are made of different kinds of molecules.
No, solids and liquids do not always dissolve in each other. The ability of two substances to dissolve in each other depends on their chemical compatibility and similar molecular structures..solids dissolve in liquids when the intermolecular forces between the solid and the liquid molecules are similar.
* solid to liquid: melting* liquid to solid: freezing* liquid to gas: vaporization* gas to liquid: liquefaction* solid to gas: sublimation* gas to solid: deposition
The particles are farther apart from each other, and the pull on each atom loosens.
Particles in a liquid can slide past each other but are still packed together.
In a liquid, particles are close together but have more freedom of movement than in a solid. The particles in a liquid are constantly moving, sliding past each other, and are not arranged in a fixed pattern like in a solid.
The point at which a solid becomes a liquid is known as the melting point. This differs depending on the solid.
