∙ 12y agoThe particles in a solid are very close. They can not move about. They vibrate about fixed positions.
Solids have a fixed volume because the particles are so close they can not be squeezed together.
Solids have a fixed shape because their particles can not move.

Do particles in a solid move faster than particles in liquid?
No, particles in a solid only vibrate, whereas particles in a liquid are free to move within the liquid.
How does the particles in solid states move around?
The particles in a solid move around one point.
Does gas have fast moving particles?
yes. gas has the fastest moving particles and a solid has the slowest moving particles and particles in a liquid are moving faster than solid particles but not as fast as gas particles.
The Particles in a Solid are?
The particles are vibrating about their mean position.
Are particles closer in a crystalline solid or a amorphous solid?
amphorous solid
Are particles far apart in a solid?
no but the particles in a solid vibrate
How do particles behave in solid?
how do particles behave in a solid state
Why liquid particles did not join to the solid particle?
liquid particles do not join the solid particles because the particles of solid are very tightly packed but this is not in the case of liquid
Can solid particles move?
solid particles cannot move.
How are particles of a liquid different from the particles of a solid?
The particles of a solid are close together and the particles of a liquid are slightly farther apart.
How are the particls of a liquid different from the particles of a solid?
The particles of a liquid are not attached to each other. The particles of a solid are.
Do gas particles move slower than solid particles?
No. Gas particles move much faster than solid particles.
How do particles of a solid move?
If the object is completely solid the particles don't move
Do particles in a solid move faster than particles in liquid?
No, particles in a solid only vibrate, whereas particles in a liquid are free to move within the liquid.
What are things that are true about particles in a solid?
Atoms are in a solid but as in particles it depends on the object.
What do particles of a solid do when the solid sublimes?
Sublimation is the conversion from solid directly to gas, so the particles of a solid that sublimes would change into a gas.
What do the particles of a solid do when the solid sublime?
Sublimation is the conversion from solid directly to gas, so the particles of a solid that sublimes would change into a gas.
