Correct Answer

C

Explanation

the arrangement and movement of their particles. In solids, the particles are closely packed together in a regular pattern and vibrate in fixed positions. This gives solids a definite shape and volume. Liquids, on the other hand, have particles that are close together but not as tightly packed as in solids. These particles can move past each other, allowing liquids to flow and take the shape of their container. Gases have particles that are far apart and move freely in all directions. They have no definite shape or volume and can expand to fill any container. These differences in particle arrangement and movement explain the varying properties of solids, liquids, and gases.
