compare in tabular form, the properties of solid,liquids,and gases with respect: i)shape ii)volume iii)commpressibilty iv)diffusion v)fluidity or ridgidity
Property | Solids | Liquids | Gases |
Shape | fixed shape | not fixed | not fixed |
Volume | fixed volume | fixed | not fixed |
Space between the particles | very small | larger than solids | largest |
Attraction between particles | very large | smaller than solids | smallest |
compressibility | very low compressibility | low compressibility | High compressibility |
Diffusion | Low | Higher than solids | Highest |
Rigidity | Solids are very rigid | Liquids are comparatively less rigid than solids | Gases are not rigid |
