Detailed explanation-1: -A solid has a definite shape and volume as the interparticle forces of attraction are highest as compared to liquids and gases. The shape and volume do not vary as in the case of liquids and gases.
Detailed explanation-2: -(a) Solids have a definite shape and definite volume.
Detailed explanation-3: -A solid matter has the properties of definite shape and volume. Q. Assertion [A]: A brick has a definite shape. Reason [R]: Solids have strong intermolecular force of attraction between their particles.
Detailed explanation-4: -Definite (for both shape and volume) means that the container makes no difference whatsoever. If 5-liters of liquid water is poured into a 10-liter container, the liquid would occupy 5-liters of the container and the other 5-liters would be empty.
Detailed explanation-5: -Solid has mass and a definite size and shape. Liquid has mass and a definite size but shape is not definite. It occupies the shape of container in which it is placed. Gas has mass but size and shape are not definite.
