All solids have definite shape, volume and distinct boundaries.
A Rubber band too has a definite shape, volume and distinct boundaries. Only when some external force is applied, will it change its shape. After the force is withdrawn, due to its intermolecular force of attraction, it resumes its original shape and size.
Moreover , As it doesn't flow from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration (like liquids and gases,) it has to be a solid.

Aztecs what substance was the ball made of?
The Aztecs used a solid rubber ball for their ballgame called tlachtli. The balls were made by mixing rubber with other materials like sap or juice from plants.
What element is used in a rubber band?
Rubber bands are primarily made from natural rubber, which is a polymer composed of repeating units of the organic compound isoprene. Additional materials such as sulfur and carbon black may be added to improve the band's strength and elasticity.
How does exposing a rubber band to sunlight or chemicals or heat change its strength?
Exposing a rubber band to sunlight can lead to degradation of the material, causing it to become brittle and lose strength over time. Chemical exposure can also weaken the rubber band by breaking down its molecular structure. Heat can accelerate this process, causing the rubber band to lose elasticity and strength more quickly.
Why does a rubber band increase in size when placed in kerosene?
Rubber is a hydrophobic material and tends to swell when in contact with non-polar solvents like kerosene. This is because the non-polar solvent disrupts the intermolecular forces within the rubber, causing it to expand.
Does a rubber band float?
Yes and no. Rubber bands can float and sink in water. They will float on the water for awhile and then will sink. But not all the time the rubber bands will float on the water for awhile. Sometimes it will immediately sink.
Why does a rubber band extend though it it is in solid state?
A rubber band can be stretched though it is in solid state because it approves the law of elasticity.
Is a rubber band considered solid?
Yes.
Which of the following items is also called an elastic?
A rubber band is also called an elastic.
Can a rubber band be regarded as solid even if it can be stretched?
yes
What is the point at which a rubber band breaks called?
The point at which a rubber band breaks is called its breaking or failure point.
What type of solid is rubber?
Rubber is classified as an elastomer, which is a type of polymer that can stretch and return to its original shape. It is a flexible and durable solid material commonly used in various applications due to its unique properties.
How do you build a slingshot?
Its called a rubber band
What force is exerted by rubber band?
The force exerted by a rubber band is called tension. This force occurs when the rubber band is stretched or pulled, causing it to resist and try to return to its original shape. The amount of force exerted depends on how much the rubber band is stretched.
what is the collective noun for rubber band?
it is: a "bunch" of rubber bands
What kind of property of matter a rubber band?
A rubber band is an elastic material, meaning it can regain its original shape after being stretched. This property is due to the polymer chains within the rubber band being able to rearrange when force is applied and return to their original positions when the force is removed.
What is the technique for hemorrhoidectomy called rubber band ligation?
Rubber band ligation is a technique that works well with internal hemorrhoids that protrude outward with bowel movements.
When you make sounds by plucking a rubber band you make the rubber band move back and forth very quickly this movement is called?
Vibration. The back and forth motion of the rubber band creates sound waves that we perceive as sound.
