The forces between liquid particles are weaker than the forces between solid particles. This means that liquid particles are further apart and can move about more easily. Since the particles can move, the liquid can flow and take the shape of its container.

The intermolecular space between the solids is least because they are held by a strong intermolecular force of attraction. This strong intermolecular force of attraction gives rigidity to the solids. It reduces the space between the molecules in a solid.

Associative Property: Multiplication of integers is associative. That is, for any three integers, a, b, c,a × (b × c) = (a × b) × cIt means no matter how we group different integers in multiplication, the product remains unaffected. Example: For three integers, 2, 3, and 5, their multiplication, 2 × (3 × 5) = (2 × 3) × 5 = 30 For three integers, 2, –6, and –5, their multiplication, 2 × ((–6) × (–5)) = (2 × (–6)) × (–5) = 60
