Question

Compare the nature of the forces between atoms or molecules (or both) in the solid, liquid, and gas phases. Solids: The attractive forces bind particles together, but not rigidly so; each atom or molecule can move about relative to the others but is always n contact with other atoms or molecules. The attractive forces between particles are too weak to bind them together; atoms or molecules move about freely with high speed and are widely separated, only coming into contact when they collide. The attractive forces are so strong that the atoms or molecules are rigidly bound to their neighbors and can only vibrate. Liquids: The attractive forces bind particles together, but not rigidly so; each atom or molecule can move about relative to the others but is always in contact with other atoms or molecules. The attractive forces between particles are too weak to bind them together; atoms or molecules move about freely with high speed and are widely separated, only coming into contact when they collide. The attractive forces are so strong that the atoms or molecules are rigidly bound to their neighbors and can only vibrate. Gases: The attractive forces bind particles together, but not rigidly so; each atom or molecule can move about relative to the others but is always in contact with other atoms or molecules.
