Out of the three states of matter, solid state is most commonly found in our surroundings. The solid state particles do not possess fluidity. This is because the constituent particles of solids are combined together by strong intermolecular forces of attraction that do not enable the particles to move to and fro from their mean positions. Solids due to the same reason possess definite shape and definite volume.
