Answer:
Solid phase has a fixed shape and volume
Explanation:
A solid has a definite volume and a definite shape.
A liquid a definite volume and no definite shape.
A gas no definite volume and no definite shape.
Solids
1. Solids have a definite volume and definite shape
2. The particles present in a solid are very closely packed since the intermolecular forces between them are very strong. The molecules do not move apart.
Liquids
1. Liquids have a definite volume and no definite shape
2. The particles present in a liquid are closely packed since the intermolecular forces holds the molecules close together. The molecules slide over each other.
3. Liquids take up the shape of the container
Gases
1. Gases have no definite volume and no definite shape
2. The particles present in a gas are very loosely packed since the intermolecular forces are very weak.
3. There are no attractive forces between the molecules.
4. Gases spread through the container
