Solids are more elastic than liquids and gases because their particles are closely packed in a fixed structure, allowing them to efficiently transmit forces and return to their original shape after deformation. In contrast, liquids have more loosely arranged particles that can flow and change shape, while gases have widely spaced particles that move freely, resulting in lower resistance to deformation. This structural difference in particle arrangement and bonding leads to the higher elasticity observed 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.


Can solids liquids or gasses be squashed?

Sure. Think about how to ask the question so's you get a more useful answer.


Why are solids less effected by pressure than liquids or gases?

Solids are less changed in volume by pressure than fluids (liquids or gasses or plasmas) because the atoms or molecules in solids are more closely bound by the chemical bonds that form them. JCF


When a fluid increases does its particles occupy less space?

Liquids, solids and gasses EXPAND when heated- the particles occupy more space.


Solids are generally heavy while gases are light explain?

Solids tend to be heavier because they have more atoms in less area (density) and the reason they have more atoms in less area is because they have an atomic attraction between them that is much greater than that of gasses and liquids (liquids have no atomic attraction and gasses tend to repel themselves) Now gasses whose atoms repel against themselves are much more disperse and occupy a lot more space with a lot less mass.

What is a particable?

A particle is an atom which cant be seen by the naked human eye, everything is made up of: in solids; gasses and liquids. Each atom contains electrons, protons and neutrons, which is what gives each particle its properties. Solids tend to have more compact particles where as gasses have less.


How mixtures form?

Why are solids and liquids condensed materials?

They are condensed materials because that's what makes them what they are. The more condensed a substance is the less it can flow. Gases are the least condensed, so they flow the easiest, followed by fluids, then solids.


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.
