What are the spacing of particles in solids and liquids?

Answer 1

That would depend on the nature of the particles present. If you have a molecular solid, it's the intermolecular distance. If it's ionic then you'd say the interionic distance, though you'd have to make it clear whether you are referring to the distance from the positive ion to the negative ion, or from one like ion to the next.

Answer 2

Distances between molecules in solids and liquids are usually on the order of a few Angstroms. Distances between molecules in a gas can vary from almost liquid-like distances in highly compressed gasses near their critical point all the way to thousands of kilometers in the interstellar void.

Answer 3

Molecules and atoms, whether they are in a solid, liquid, or gas phase, engage in random thermal motion. The higher the temperature, the more random thermal motion there will be. Since nothing ever cools down to absolute zero, there is always some residual motion, although it can be brought down to an extremely low level in the laboratory.

Answer 4

Particles in a solid are tightly-packed, so there is no movement at all, therefore no space.

Answer 5

Depends on what it is that is solid.

Molecules in substances, and atoms in elements.

Answer 6

The distance between molecules of a liquid depends on the type of liquid and its temperature.

Closely packed ,tightly packed

Answer 8
