The particles in a solid are closely locked in position and can only vibrate.
I would describe it as this: All of the particles are tightly packed together with almost no spaces between them. Their motion is very limited, unlike that of a gas where the particles are spaced further apart and they are free to move around more.
Amorphous solids can have a random arrangement of particles.
Technically, all particles in a Solid, Liquid, or Gas are moving. But a gas moves the fastest, liquid fast, but not as fast as gas, and solid moves the slowest.
Molecules of a substance are in constant motion. Whether you have a solid, liquid, or gas, the particles are moving (but the speed and amount they move differs). Particles of a solid move the least (they basically vibrate), particles of a liquid can flow around one another, and particles of a gas have a lot of space between them because they move in random, constant motions.
In the solid state, the particles are most tightly connected. The particles in a solid are closely packed and vibrate in fixed positions, giving solids a definite shape and volume.

This is a solid.
particles move randomely
Plate tectonics.
The constant motions allow the gas to fill whatever contains it.
yes

The particles of a solid are close together and the particles of a liquid are slightly farther apart.
