Solution

The correct option is B density ; compressibility
Solid have high density and low compressibility.
The solid molecules are very close to each other as the intermolecular forces are very strong. Hence, solids have small volume and high density. Also since the intermolecular distance is small, the solid molecules cannot be easily compressed.
