Why dont particles in a solid move as freely as particles in a gas?

since the interaction forces or vander waal forces between the particles of solid is more more than that of gas so they dont.....thx...with best regards..

Why particles in solid unable to move freely?
particles in solids are unable to move freely because the atoms that makes up the solid are tightly packed together. the molecular structure of a solid is different to that of a liquid or a gas.
Particles in a liquid move around just as freely as particles in a solid?
Solid: Locked in a crystaline structure, however they do vibrate slightly. Liquid: Particles are attracted to one another but can flow freely. Gas: Particles move with total freedom.
True or flase particles in liquid move around just freely as particles in a solid?
Particles in a solid move around very little depending on the material in question however most liquids can move around very freely. Therefore the answer is True.
In a solid are the particles are packed closely together but they can move past each other freely?
No. They are packed closely together, and can not move freely.
How does the particles of a liquid move?
the particles of a liquid are more freely than the solid because it dose not have definite shape
What is a state of matter when the particles are close together but can move?
If you are asking when particles are "able to move freely" that would be a liquid. If you simply ask about "moving" then that would be a solid, since in a solid the particles are still movings.
How are the particles in a liquid different from the particles in a solid?
a gas have no definite shape so the particles can move around freely but in a liquid ,which has a definite shape, particles move around but are restricted
A phase in which particles are held tightly together and dont move freely?
Solids
Particles in a solid cannot move around they can?
The particles in a solid vibratre in a fixed position. Applying more force will allow them to move more freely
Which particles move freely in straight lines between liquid solid and gas?
Liquid for sure. As the particles in solid only vibrate and gas particles move about at random. Liquid particles are free to move past each other but, the tend to stick together. Hope that helped.
How are the particles in a solid arranged differently from those in a liquid?
a gas have no definite shape so the particles can move around freely but in a liquid ,which has a definite shape, particles move around but are restricted
What is the movement of particles in a solid liquid and gas?
The particles in a solid are close together.They are fixed in pace but can vibrate.The particles that make up a liquid are close together but usually farther apart than the particles in a solid are.They can slide freely past one another.The particles in gas are farther apart than particles in a liquid and solid.Gas particles move freely in any directions.
