What is matter in which particles are arranged in fixed locations?
Particles are held (relatively) rigidly in place in a solid. They are held rigidly in place in a solid at absolute zero.
Does a solid have particles that are held rigidly in place?
Yes, the particles are held compactly and tightly in place.
Is density particles closely packed together?
No, the particles in a liquid are not held rigidly in place. If they were held rigidly in place, that substance would no longer be a liquid but instead be a solid. A liquid, by definition, has particles that are free to move around each while still being held together by intermolecular or interatomic forces. This is what allows liquids to freely move around and to fill up whatever container they are poured into.
What state of matter are held tightly in place by other particles?
The state of matter that is held tightly in place is in the form of a solid. Gas particles are not tightly packed, unless they are being pressurized, same with water.
Are gas particles held more tightly than liquid particles?
gas particles are not held together and in liquid sthey are not held very tightly.

Which state of matter where particles are rigidly held in fixed positions?
This is the solid state.
Does a solid have particles that are held rigidly in place?
Yes, the particles are held compactly and tightly in place.
Why does sound travel faster in solids than in liquids and faster in liquids than in gases?
The velocity at which the mechanical energy of sound moves between the particles of a medium has much to do with the density of the medium. It also has to do with how rigidly the particles of the medium are being held in place. Solids have particles that are very close to each other and are held pretty rigidly in place, so the transfer of energy will occur rapidly. In liquids, however, the particles are farther apart and not held as rigidly in place, and in gasses this is even more pronounced. This increase in particle spacing and in the rigidity of the material from medium to medium results in the slower transfer of energy from one particle to another.

Does a gas have particles that are held rigidly in place?
NO! gas particles move around freely and zoom all over the place. ice is made of rigid particles which is why it is a solid. a liquid is made up of s l o w l y moving particles, which is why it can move freely.

In which phases are the molecules held rigidly together?
answer please
Held very tightly?
Solid matter. Because it composed of tightly packed particles.
Why does solid has definite volume?
A solid is made of particles that are close together and held rigidly to one another. As a result, they do not move around. We preceive this as keeping their shape or definite shape. Since the particles are as close as they can be and yet held strongly so that they may not move apart we perceive this as keeping the same volume or definite volume.
Explain Pressure using the particle theory of matter?
Matter is anything that has mass and can take up space.The Particle Theory of Matter:1. Matter is made up of tiny particles (Atoms & Molecules)2. Particles of Matter are in constant motion.3. Particles of Matter are held together by very strong electric forces4. There are empty spaces between the particles of matter that are very large compared to the particles themselves.5. Each substance has unique particles that are different from the particles of other substances6. Temperature affects the speed of the particles. The higher the temperature, the faster the speed of the particles
In which state particles held together but may move?
for some reason they just do
