The primary difference between solids and liquids is that the constituent particles are:
  • A
    closely packed in solids, while they are stationary in liquids.
  • B
    far apart in solids and have fixed positions in liquids.
  • C
    always moving in solids and have a fixed position in liquids.
  • closely packed in solids and move past each other in liquids.

Answer: D.

Assertion (A): Gases can be compressed easily as compared to solids and liquids.
Reason (R): The particles in gases are closely packed with very little inter-particle space.
  • A
    Both (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • (A) is true, but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false, but (R) is true.

Answer: C.

Assertion (A): The physical state of a substance depends on the arrangement and movement of its particles.
Reason (R): Solids have the least interparticle spacing and particles vibrate in fixed positions, while gases have maximum spacing and move freely in all directions.
  • Both (A) and (R) are true, and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B
    Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
  • C
    (A) is true, but (R) is false.
  • D
    (A) is false, but (R) is true.
