Solid rock can (and does) flow. However the when rock mets its viscosity becomes less than the viscocity of a solid and the rate of low becomes perceptible to human senses.
Liquid and gas can flow and change shape to fit their containers, while solids have a fixed shape and volume. Liquids and gases can also be easily compressed or expanded, which is difficult for solids to do.
Glass is a solid, not a liquid. Despite its appearance, glass is actually an amorphous solid, meaning its molecules are arranged in a disordered fashion, similar to a liquid, but they are still fixed in place like a solid. This is why glass does not flow or change shape over time like a liquid would.
Simply, there are three types of matter (which scientists call states), solid, liquid and gas. Liquids and gasses can flow. Solids do not. The solid state is defined by the fact that solids can not flow.
yes. yes if it isn't a liquid or a gas then it is a solid
Water cannot pass through a solid rock because the rock's structure is tight and does not have spaces for the water to flow through. The pores in the rock are too small for water molecules to move through.
liquid's particles are not as close as to that of the solid the very reason why it cannot be held.because of this ability of liquid to flow, it affects the forces of a liquid to flow thoroughly.
Solids do not flow. The particles in a solid cannot change places so a solid will keep its shape (unless it is broken).
It cannot flow because its not hot
This depends on how dense the solid is, and how dense the liquid is.
A gas can flow from one place to another. Liquids can also flow, but solids cannot flow because their particles are closely packed and do not move freely.
Liquid and gas can flow and change shape to fit their containers, while solids have a fixed shape and volume. Liquids and gases can also be easily compressed or expanded, which is difficult for solids to do.
liquid and gas because they both have an ability to flow
It is solid as it doesn't flow like a liquid or has vast space between its molecules like gases.
in some cases yes e.g sugar is a solid but moves like a liquid so yes solids can flow
A solid is a substance that cannot be compressed because its particles are closely packed together in a fixed arrangement. Solid substances also cannot flow, as their particles do not have the ability to move past each other easily.
plasma
Sand is a solid, made up of tiny particles of rocks and minerals. It does not flow like a liquid or disperse like a gas.
