In which state of matter are particles tightly packed together?

Answer 1

Solid !

Answer 2

Particles are tightly packed together in the solid state of matter. In a solid, the particles are arranged in a fixed, orderly pattern, with little room for movement. This close arrangement gives solids their definite shape and volume.

Answer 3

In both the solid and liquid state, atoms (and molecules) are packed closely together.

In solids the particles are in nearly fixed positions, though vibration is present as a result of thermal motion. In a liquid or gas, particles move extensively as a consequence of the thermal motion. In a solid, the forces between particles are strong enough to hold them in place.

In a liquid, particles are very nearly as close to each other as they are in a solid, but those positions keep changing and the individual particles are free to move around.

In a gas, there is a great deal of space between particles. For a material composed of just simple atoms, say Argon, the solid has particles of only a few angstroms separation. In the liquid form the average distance is no more than a few percent different. In the gas, the distance between atoms is generally hugely different tens, or hundreds or millions of times larger.

This answer is comparing the gas, liquid and solid states of normal matter. Any discussion of exotic states, such as plasma or nuclear matter, is a vastly different topic.
That is the solid state.

Answer 4

Particles are tightly packed together in the solid state of matter. This results in a fixed shape and volume for solids.

Answer 5

The state of matter in which particles are packed tightly together in fixed positions is a solid.

Answer 6

The state of matter that has particles close together and in fixed positions is a solid.
