A liquid will fit in any shape of a (larger) container, a solid does not, because of its own 'solid' shape.
Solids and liquids are both forms of matter with definite volumes. However, solids have a definite shape, while liquids take the shape of their container. Solids have particles tightly packed together, whereas liquids have particles that are more spread out and can move past each other.
The three different types of matter are solids, liquids, and gases. Solids have a definite shape and volume, liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, and gases have neither a definite shape nor volume and expand to fill their container.
For example polar liquids dissolve polar solids, nonpolar liquids dissolve nonpolar 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.
Solids become liquids when the temperature reaches melting point, groups of particles start to brake away from each other. This is when the solid starts becoming a liquid. Liquids become solids on cooling, the particles move slower and become a solid.
Both liquids and Solids have definite volumes
liquids don't have a particular form solids do and take up a shape liquids do not.
solids and liquids are different from each other because a solid is hard and you can eat it ,a liquid is something you drink.
They are different states of matter.
Solids are hard but liquids have no feeling. Solids have a shape but liquids do not.
Liquids have the form of the containers.
The motion of particles in gasses, liquids, and solids are all different. Gas particles can move much more quickly than solids.
Yes, solids, liquids, and gases have different masses because their particles are packed differently. In general, solids have the most mass because their particles are closely packed, while gases have the least mass because their particles are spread out. Liquids have a mass between that of solids and gases.
