How solids are different from gas and liquid?
Liquids have the form of the containers.
How the motion of particles differ in gases liquids and solids.?
The motion of particles in gasses, liquids, and solids are all different. Gas particles can move much more quickly than solids.
Do liquids and solids diffuse easily?
Liquids do, but solids do not.
What is the temperature for solids?
