They are EXACTLY the same particles but in a liquid they are further apart and free to move round as compared to the particles in the solid form which are fixed in their position, one relative to the other.
The common denominator would be the kinetic energy of the particles making up the solids, liquids, and gases.
solids are packed tightly together with no gaps liquids are joined together in groups of about three particles and there are noticeable gaps between each group and gases are separate particles which just bounce around randomly.
No, they are not packed tightly together. The particles in solids are. In gas, they move in random motion and are the furthest apart, compared to solids and liquids. Hope this helps :)
some solids are more dense than liquids (they sink) but others are less dense which is why not all solids sink
Liquids do, but solids do not.
No. The particles in the solids have different mass as the particles in the liqiuds, so they diffuse at the different rate. but if their particles have the same rate, they will diffuse at the same rate.
the particles in solids are closer together than in liquids and gases allowing it to keep its shape
The motion of particles in gasses, liquids, and solids are all different. Gas particles can move much more quickly than solids.
Solids become liquids when the temperature reaches melting point, groups of particles start to brake away from each other. This is when the solid starts becoming a liquid. Liquids become solids on cooling, the particles move slower and become a solid.
Yes.
almost together

diffusion.
not easily compressible
The common denominator would be the kinetic energy of the particles making up the solids, liquids, and gases.
Solids are more compact than liquids. The particles of a solid are closer together. Since heat is the kinetic force between particles, the closer those particles are the easier it is to excite them.
Particles. Just like liquids and gases. The difference between them is that solids have tighter packed particles that are less able to move freely
