Solution

The particles in liquids are not tightly packed.
It is evident that the spaces between the particles of a liquid are larger than those of a solid.
Even though there is a fairly strong force of attraction between the molecules of a liquid, it is not strong enough to secure the particles in liquids in their fixed positions.
Consequently, we can say that the particles of a liquid move from one place to another within the liquid.
