Solution

  1. All solids have a definite shape, distinct boundaries, and fixed volumes.
  2. in solids, the particles are closely packed i.e., there is a strong force of attraction between the particles of solid.
  3. We can say that the position of the particles in a solid is fixed.
  4. When the solid is heated, its particles start to vibrate faster. This reduces the spaces between the particles of a solid and the kinetic energy becomes minimum.

Due to the above reasons, solids have the most ordered arrangement of particles.
