Question

Post your summary of the chapter on Liquids and Solids.

For maximum point,

1) Your post must be very detailed and informative (not less than 200 words).

kindly type the answers on here do not write.

Answer 1

SOLIDS- in the solid state , the individual particles of a substance are in a fixed position with respect to each other because there is not enough thermal energy to overcome to intermolecular interactions btw the particles..

As a result , solid have definite shape and volume.

Most solids are hard but some ( like wax) are relatively soft . Many solids. Composed of ions can also be quite brittle.

Solid are defined by the following characteristics

1. Definite shape

2. Definite volume

3. Particles vibrate around fixed axes

LIQUID- if the particles of a substance have enough thermal energy to partially overcome intermolecular interactions , then the particles can move about each other while remaining in contact.. This describes liquid stateIn a liquid , particles are still in close contact , so liquids have a definite volume.. however , because the particles can move about each other rather freely , a liquid has no definite shape and takes a shape of dictated by its shape

Liquids have following characteristics

1. No definite shape ( takes the shape of its container)

2. Has definite volume

3. Particles are free to move over each other , but still they are attracted to each
