How are the molecules in a particular solid different from the molecules of that substance in a liquid form?
the molecules in solids are tigthly packed that is the intermolecular force(cohesive) force is more but in liquids the intermolecular force(cohesive force) is less .solids have fixed shape,volume, mass but liquids have no fixed shape as it takes shape of the container.
