None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The particles in solids vibrate about fixed positions; even at very low temperatures. Individual particles in liquids and gases have no fixed positions and move chaotically.

Detailed explanation-2: -In solids, particles are held very close to each other in an orderly fashion, they are tightly packed and so there is not much freedom of movement. In liquids, the particles are close to each other but not as close as in solids, so they can move around.
