Parameter	Solids	Liquids	Gases
Packing of molecules	Very closely packed		Very loosely packed
Intermolecular space		More space than solid	Huge intermolecular space
Intermolecular force of attraction	Huge intermolecular force of attraction
Molecular movement		Molecules possess translatory and rotatory motion in addition to vibratory motion
Kinetic energy	Molecules have least kinetic energy

Accepted Answer

Comparative study of the properties of solids, liquids, and gases.

Parameter Solids Liquids Gases

Packing of molecules Very closely packed Loosely packed than solid but tightly packed than liquid Very loosely packed

Intermolecular space Least intermolecular space More space than solid Huge intermolecular space

Intermolecular force of attraction Huge intermolecular force of attraction Less intermolecular force of attraction than solid, but more intermolecular force of attraction than gas Least intermolecular force of attraction

Molecular movement Only vibratory motion Molecules possess translatory and rotatory motion in addition to vibratory motion Translatory, rotatory and vibratory motions in all directions

Kinetic energy Molecules have least kinetic energy Have kinetic energy more than solid but less than gas. Have maximum kinetic energy
