The distance between molecules in a solid is not very far at all. In fact in some solids there is no distance.
Ice is a solid made up of moleculs, H2O. Generally when a solid melts the distance between the molecules (or atoms if it is sya a metal) increases.Water is very unusual in that the solid form is lessdense than the liquid, which is why icebergs float. The reason is that solid water forms a hydrogen bonded lattice that is quite "open" and the mean distance between molecules is actually greater in the solid than in the liquid hence the lower density.
The attraction between water molecules and solid surfaces is called adhesion. This phenomenon is due to the intermolecular forces between the molecules involved, leading to the water molecules being attracted to the surface of the solid.
In the solid state, iodine molecules are held together by intermolecular forces, which create a larger average distance between the atoms compared to when they are in the gaseous state and are free to move independently of one another. The intermolecular forces in the solid, such as Van der Waals forces, result in a longer bond distance between the iodine atoms.
When a solid is heated, the molecules gain kinetic energy and vibrate more vigorously, leading to an increase in the space between molecules. This increased kinetic energy causes the solid to expand, which can result in a decrease in the overall density and volume of the solid due to the increased space between molecules.
During the phase change from a liquid to a gas, the average distance between molecules always increases.
The force between the molecules in the liquid state will be weaker compared to the solid state. This is because the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together in a liquid are generally weaker than those in a solid.

In a solid state, molecules are packed closely together but they do not touch each other in the traditional sense. There is a small distance between molecules due to the forces of attraction and repulsion between them.
The correct order from left to right for increasing distance between bromine molecules is gas, liquid, solid. In the gas phase, molecules are widely separated and move freely. In the liquid phase, molecules are closer together but can still move around. In the solid phase, molecules are tightly packed and have limited movement.

In liquids, molecules are close together but with some space between them. The molecules are constantly moving, allowing them to flow and take the shape of the container. The distance between molecules is greater than in a solid, but less than in a gas.
solid is a state in which molecules are closely packed than liquids and gases. the inter molecular distance between the molecules of solids are less or negligible.thats why the solids are not compressible
The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.
As we all know d 3 forms of matter,Solid Liquid and Gas,the difference between these 3 is the distance between the molecules of matter, the order of dist between these states is as below solid<liquid<gas.

2.22 angstroms is the distance between Si atoms in solid silicon.
