A liquid is a fluid. Unlike a solid, the molecules in a liquid have a much greater freedom to move. The forces that bind the molecules together in a solid are only temporary in a liquid, allowing a liquid to flow while a solid remains rigid.

Is there more liquids than solids on the earth?

On the surface, more liquids. Considering the whole Earth, much more solids than liquids


Why are liquids more heavier than solids?

Liquids are generally heavier than solids because the molecules in liquids are more densely packed together and have more mass per unit volume compared to solids. Additionally, liquids tend to have a higher density than solids, making them heavier when compared in equal volumes.


Are solids Less dense than liquids?

Not necessarily. The density of a substance depends on its mass and volume, so it can vary for both solids and liquids. In general, solids are denser than liquids because the particles in solids are typically more closely packed together.


Do liquids heat up faster than solids?

In general, liquids heat up faster than solids because molecules in liquids are able to move and transfer heat more freely than molecules in solids, which have a fixed structure. This allows heat to be distributed more evenly and raise the temperature of liquids more rapidly.


What makes up solids liquids and gases?

Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases


Why is kinetic energy of liquids more than solids?

The kinetic energy in liquids is greater than that in solids because the molecules in solids are more closely packed together than in liquids such that liquids can freely move about within the containing vessel.


Why is the gravitational pull on liquids more noticeable than pull on solids?

Liquids are easier to move around more.


do solids freeze faster than liquids?

Why is it easier to find solids and liquids than gases?

Humans are more use to engaging and thinking about solids than liquids or gases. They are easier to find because they are what we are looking for.


Why do liquids expand on heating more than solids?

The answer is a lot more simple than you may imagine, it is simply because the atoms and molecules in liquids havd more freedom to move about than in solids


How the motion of particles differ in gases liquids and solids.?

The motion of particles in gasses, liquids, and solids are all different. Gas particles can move much more quickly than solids.
