CHEMISTRY Chapter : solid state
Document Summary
Simply said, the solid-state is a condition of matter. In our early years of education, we discovered that matter may exist in three different states: solid, liquid, and gas. However, as we move up the grades, the concepts become more complex and there are more things to learn. In this lesson, we"ll discuss the idea of the solid-state in more detail and learn all the words that underlie it, such as its qualities or different sorts of solids. Solids typically display specific traits that distinguish them from liquids and gases. They can, for instance, withstand any pressure placed on their surface. However, the features of atoms, such as their arrangement and the forces that exist between them, greatly influence the solid state of compounds. *because the constituent particles of solids are grouped closely together and have little free space between them, solids are incompressible.
