Discuss the three states of matter solid, liquids and gas on the basis of molecular model.

उत्तर
Solids

Here the molecules are very tightly packed that there is no or very less intermolecular space and there is a high intermolecular force of attraction (force of cohesion). The molecules in a solid can only vibrate to and fro about their mean positions. They do not leave their positions.
Liquids

Here the molecules are less tightly packed as compared to solids and also there is a lesser force of intermolecular attraction. The intermolecular distance is greater than that in the solids. Thus, they do not have a definite shape but acquire the shape of the vessel in which they are contained but have a definite volume at a given temperature.
