solid state characteristics

Characteristics of solid state :

 

 

 

 

 

 l) The solid of fixed composition has defined mass, volume, shape and density.

2) Solids have more density than liquid and gasesous state of the same matter (except ice )

3) Most of the solids are hard, incompressible and rigid. ‘

4) Intermolecular forces of attraction in solid state is strong.

S) In solid state molecules have no freedom.

6) All pure solids have characteristic melting point.
