Why when two solids are placed on top of each other they don't mix?

there are strong forces holding the solids together so they cannot leave their positions.

What Name a property of liquids that they do not share with solids?
Liquids can move and can change places while the solids are tightly packed with each other and cannot move or change places.
Molecules in what state are strongly attracted to each other but can change positions?
I think it is water molecules
Which physical state is most highly ordered?
A gas because the atoms are free to move and collide into each other, a liquid is similar however less disordered as there is less movement between atoms however a solid is relatively ordered because the atoms are close to each other vibrating.
Two negatively charged particles are placed close together. Which of the following best describes their interaction?
They will repel each other.
When atoms collide why do they transfer electrons?
While protons are located in the nucleus, the electrons are located in the outer shell of an atom. Therefore, the pull on the electron by the nucleus is weaker allowing them to move towards other atoms.
What type of friction occurs when 2 solids rub against each other?
Sliding friction occurs when two solids rub against each other.
Do particles of a liquid collide with each other?
solids
What are solids particle movement?
Good question... Solids particles hardly move they just hit up against each other which causes them to fibrate so fast that you dont feel it. Sorry I would of given you a more specific answer but I have already learned this so i dont remember the scientific explanation
Do Compressional waves travel faster in liquids or solids?
solids because the molecules/atoms are closer to each other.
How the particles attracted to each other on solids?
they arent attracted to each other, they are just closely packed together
What has 3 liquids floating on top of each other and has three solids in it?
3 liquids- oil, water, and cleaning stuff can float on top of each other 3 solids- foil, paper, rocks
How are solids and liquids diffrent?
solids and liquids are different from each other because a solid is hard and you can eat it ,a liquid is something you drink.
Expansion of solids as they become warmer?
Solids comprise of atoms. As temperature increases, the atoms vibrate and move further from each other. The effect makes solids to expand in all directions.
When placed near each other opposites magnetic poles repel each other?
Yes, Because they repel each other.
When placed near each other opposite magnetic poles repel each other.?
Yes, Because they repel each other.
Friction occurs when two solids surfaces rub against each other?
Sliding
Why are solids noncompressible?
solids are imcompressible or noncompressible because the molecules of solids have very strong intermolecular forces acting between them.They are very tightly stuck withn each other and therefore they are noncompressible.
