Question 4

Write the difference among solids, liquids and gases.

Answer 1

SOLID	LIQUID	GASES
A solid has a definite shape and definite volume.	A liquid has a definite volume, but not a definite shape.	A gas has neither a definite volume nor a definite shape.
The molecules in a solid are rigid.	The molecules in a liquid are not so rigid.	The molecules in a gas are not rigid.
Solid particles have low kinetic energy.	Liquid molecules have intermediate kinetic energy.	They possess very high kinetic energy.
Not compressible	Not compressible	Highly compressible.
They have a very strong intermolecular force of attraction.	They have less strong interparticle force of attraction.	They have weak interparticle force of attraction.
They have the least interparticle space.	They have lesser interparticle space.	They have more than others interparticle space.
The diffusion rate is very low.	The diffusion rate is moderate.	The diffusion rate is very high.
