Question

Why are solids generally denser than liquids and gases

Open in App
Solution

Solids are more denser as the intermolecular force of attraction between the particles are more and they are packed tightly. So the density is more for solids. Whereas in liquids and gases this force is somewhat less and they are less denser than the solids.
