because the intermolucalar space is very tight between them.
solid have definite shape , definite volume and close together particles
The solid state of matter has a definite shape and volume. Particles in a solid are closely packed together and have strong forces holding them in place, giving the solid its fixed shape and volume.
Solids have a fixed shape and volume, maintaining a definite structure, while liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container, flowing and conforming to it. Gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume, filling the space available to them and expanding to fit any container.
A solid keeps its shape and volume because its particles are closely packed together and have strong forces of attraction between them. This allows the solid to maintain a fixed shape and size.
A solid matter holds its own shape. The particles in a solid are closely packed together, which allows it to maintain a fixed volume and shape.
A solid has a fixed volume and does not change shape.

A solid has a fixed shape and volume and cannot be compressed
A solid has a definite shape and volume. (but the volume may change with temperature)A liquid has a definite volume but not a definite shape, and a gas has no definite volume or shape.
Solid: Particles are tightly packed together, have a fixed shape and volume, and vibrate in place. Liquid: Particles are close together but can flow and take the shape of their container, with a fixed volume. Gas: Particles are far apart, move freely, have no fixed shape or volume, and fill the entire container they are in.
The state of matter in which the volume and shape of a substance are fixed is a solid. In solids, particles are closely packed together and have a fixed arrangement, giving them a definite shape and volume.
A solid has a fixed volume and shape. Like a bar of soap. A liquid has a fixed volume, but no fixed shape, like water. A gas has no fixed volume and no fixed shape. Like a burp. If you pour mouthwash into a glass, it still has volume, but now it takes on the shape of the glass. Hmmm. Sounds mighty liquidy, does it not?
A solid has a definite shape, and a definite volume.
