The atoms in a solid are in a tighter formation that as they are in a liquid. In a liquid, They are loose and have the ability to pour.

What is the difference between liquid and solid steel?
the only difference is the energy of the atoms
What is the only difference between liquid or molten steel and solid steel?
Energy. The atoms in solid steel are moving more slowly than the atoms in liquid steel.
What is the difference between a solid and a liquid?
Atoms of a solid are closer to one another, and do not have the energy to shift positions. The atoms of a liquid are more loosely connected, and can adjust to various physical shapes.
What is the difference between a liquid and a gas?
a liquid's atoms stay close together, while the atoms in a gas tay spaced out and far aprt to fill up a whole spacegas is in the air and you cant see it. liquid is water
Is it true that the primary difference between a solid and a liquid is a kind of atom in the material?
No. The difference between a solid and a liquid are theorganization and energies of the molecules (or atoms) present. For instance, water (H2O) can be found as a solid (ice), liquid (water from your sink), or gas (steam). All of these are H2O. They differ only in the amount of energy in each state (gas > liquid > solid) and organization of the molecules (spread out -vs- packed together).
What is the difference between interstitial and vacancy diffusion?
The main difference is atoms that which are channelled through the diffusing process where the atoms stick to the molecular structure of a material this only happens in interstitial diffusion where in vacancy diffusion the atoms reppelled away hence the word vacancy.
What values best classifies a bond between 2 atoms as being covalent?
An electronegativity difference of less that 1.7 between the atoms
What is the difference between metal atom and wood atom?
Wood atoms do not exist, and there are many different types of metal atoms. Look on a periodic table. Wood is a biological material consisting of a lot of molecules and atoms.
Nonpolar bonds show what electronegativity difference between atoms?
Nonpolar bonds show a Low electronegativity difference between atoms
What keeps material intact?
The bonds between atoms
What is GaCL3 and is it ionic?
Gallium trichloride is covalent. It is present in the solid and liquid as the dimer Ga2Cl6 which has two bridging chlorine atoms. The electronegativity difference between Ga nnd Cl is only 1.32 insufficient for an ionic bond.
When does a liquid gradually change into a gas?
when the distance between the atoms or molecules increases the force of attraction becomes less and the atoms or particles fall apart and generate distances betwen them . gas is the same form of the element just as liquid the only difference is the distance between particles is large and the force of attraction is very less.
