The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
This is because the molecules of a solid are arranged are so therefore they happen to be closely packed making it hard to compress.

D: solid particle cannot easily be compress why? Because all the state of matter are easily be compress because of their ability to move about except solid
D
Solid particles cannot be easily compressed.solid particle are strong because the space between particle to particle in solid is small.solid are strong and hard because the are joined linked and packed together by strong intermolecular force. Liquid and gas can still be compressed but solid is not
D
solid particles cannot be compressed
D actual kinetic energy of solid particles are greater because they are more rigid and can't be easily compressed
Please can one post a question and get answers ?
The intermolecular force of attraction between solid is very strong,and it is tightly pack,so it cannot be compresed
D is definitely correct as Solids are not easily compressed
sure the answer is HARD TO COMPRESS
The correct answer is; it is closely packed this is because solid materials molecules are packed together by strong bonds.
This is because the molecules of a solid are arranged are so therefore they happen to be closely packed making it hard to compress.
