Mainly their weak intermolecular forces.
When a solid and a liquid are combined, the solid will dissolve into the liquid if it is soluble. The molecules of the solid will distribute themselves evenly throughout the liquid, forming a homogeneous mixture. This process is known as dissolution or solvation.
When molecules are evenly distributed through a solid, liquid, or gas, we say that the substance is in equilibrium. In a solid, the molecules are tightly packed and vibrate in place. In a liquid or gas, the molecules move freely and randomly.
Liquid turns into solid at the freezing point of water, which is 0 degrees Celsius. At this temperature, the molecules slow down and come together, forming a solid state.
Is hot gravy a solid or liquid Ans=liquid.
It is different because, liquid water can (and will) take the form of the container it is in. We can also change the form of liquid water, unlike solid ice. Solid Ice wont take the form of the container it is in and we cant change its form without breaking it.

(different ;)) the molecules are more tightly packed in a solid. an example of a sold is a TV an example of liquid is lemonaide
The molecules in a solid vibrate in place. The molecules of a liquid are moving about.
Glue in fact is a solid, liquid, and gas. It is liquid when it is in the bottle, It releases gas when it is curing, and when it is cured it is a solid. This is true for most glues, others are different.
At the molecular level, the main difference between a solid and a liquid is the arrangement and movement of molecules. In a solid, molecules are tightly packed together in a fixed position, vibrating in place. In a liquid, molecules are more loosely packed and can move around each other, allowing the liquid to flow.
Liquid molecules are spread out. Solid molecules are close together. And gas molecules are far apart.

A liquid will fit in any shape of a (larger) container, a solid does not, because of its own 'solid' shape.
molecules in solids are stationary whilst those in gases and liquids move around, more though in liquid.
Molecules in a liquid move faster than in a solid because the intermolecular forces in a liquid are weaker, allowing molecules to move around more freely. In a solid, molecules are held tightly in a fixed position by strong intermolecular forces.
The molecules are unchanged. They are however fixed in one place and unable to move around freely as they did in the liquid.
