solid particles are closer together so they can't move that well. But in a liquid the particles are farther away so they can flow more smoothly
In solids, particles are rigid and next to each other in formation.

In liquids, they are slipping over each other and continuously moving.

In gases particles are bouncing off each other and the space/containers walls that they are confined to.
In a solid, the particles that make up its matter are more closely spaced and rigid. They may have a particular fixed and defined structure (molecular or physical structure) These cannot freely moved around in a confined space (liquids) or move randomly in any direction (gases). Thus, particles in solids are more rigid and stable.

In liquids, the particles are free to move randomly in a confined container. Their movement is unpredictable and do not have a definite structure or shape. Due to this free movement, they take up the shape of the container.

This movement depends on the strength of the chemical bonds. Stronger the bond, more solid the object is, bit weaker, and it forms liquids, (when more energy is provided, more movement is possible)

What makes solid liquid and gas differ with one another?

solid and gas differ from each other simply because their atoms are differrent in composition.Atoms of a solid is compacted to each other.While the atoms of a gas are far apart from ech other sothat it can move freely. Dominique Odencia


Can a liquids particles stop moving?

No, the particles of a liquid are in constant motion, although they move more freely than particles in a solid. The movement of liquid particles explains why liquids can flow and take the shape of their container.


How do particles behave in solid?

In a solid, particles are closely packed together and vibrate in fixed positions. They have a fixed shape and volume, and only have slight movements. The particles do not have enough energy to move around freely like in liquids or gases.


What is the strength of attraction between particles in a solid?

In a solid, the strength of attraction between particles is strong compared to liquids and gases. This is because the particles are closely packed and have limited freedom to move, resulting in firm bonding forces between them.


How does energy in particles differ from solid liquid and gas?

Energy in particles refers to the kinetic energy associated with their motion. In solids, particles have the least amount of kinetic energy and vibrate in fixed positions. In liquids, particles have slightly more kinetic energy and move more freely but are still close together. In gases, particles have the highest kinetic energy and move almost independently of each other.

Are solid particles packed close together?

As compared to liquids or gasses, yes they are.


Why liquids diffuse much faster than solid?

The intermolecular force of attraction between the particles of solid is greater than liquid and due to this minimum space is found between the particles of solid. That's why liquids diffuse much faster than solids.
