In a solid, the forces between the atoms are strong enough so that they remain in their places.
solids have definite volume and shape. They are solids due to many factors including chemical compositions, the temperature in which they can stay solid, etc.

Unless you change it (e.g.: smash it) But it will keep the shape it is smashed in. Solids stay in their shape unless something else changes it for them. Or if it becomes a liquid by melting or a solid through sublimation.
Yes, solids have a definite shape
Solids have a set volume. Liquids have a set volume. Gases do not have a set volume. Why? Solids are solids. They don't move. They're in a 'frozen state' as is. Liquids 'mold' to the shape of their container and they stay there. Gases are free to go anywhere. Always moving and 'flying.'
Yes, solids typically maintain their shape because their particles are tightly packed and have strong intermolecular forces holding them together. This allows them to maintain a fixed volume and shape unless acted upon by an external force.
No. Solids are resistant to changes in both shape and volume.
Because the solid molecules are joined with very high inter molecular force in case of liquid this force is not very high.No. It is because the molecules in solids maintain a regular pattern and only vibrate, or move very slowly
Solids change their shapes in many ways. Solids will melt if they are in hot temperatures, and this changes their shape.
Solids have a fixed volume or shape at room temperature or pressure.
Solids do not change in size when taking the shape of their container because their particles are tightly packed and cannot easily move. Liquids, on the other hand, do not change in size but can take the shape of its container because their particles can move past each other.
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, while liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container. Solids have strong intermolecular forces that keep their particles in a fixed position, whereas liquids have weaker forces that allow their particles to move around but remain close together. Solids typically have a higher density than liquids.
