Solid * All solids expand on heating, especially metals. * All solids have a definite crystal structure - an orderly pattern of atoms, which is repeated again and again - some elasticity - their state in common - interact with their surroundings through the outermost atomic layers - transmit heat energy by conduction, some much better than others * Many solids are crystalline, repeating arrays of atoms - can catch fire and burn - do have a regular or repetitive pattern, however, like salt, sugar, or diamond - have a crystalline structure on microscopic scales - react readily with reactive gases such as chlorine , iodine , oxygen or others * Most solids are even harder to compress - made up of tiny crystals * Most solids are more dense than their liquid states - soluble in water at higher temperatures - rather incompressible - very difficult to compress while gases are easier * Most solids expand when heated - their temperature rises - have some sort of short range order among the atoms * Some solids are so plastic they are almost liquids. * Some solids are very poor conductors of electrons - soluble in water, while others are nearly completely insoluble * Some solids can also exhibit fluid behavior over time - become liquids when heated - crystallize into a lattice structure with metallic characteristics - float and form a scum mat on top of the water - go directly from solid to gas in a process called sublimation - have a strong affinity for specific materials - look similar but can be distinguished because of their densities * also tend to be strong enough to hold their own shape in a container. * always exert pressure downwards. * are a food source for the bacteria and the byproduct of digestion is methane gas - state of matter that are usually highly ordered - also prone to explosive decomposition if ground, for example with pestle and mortar - as common in the real world as liquids and gases - atoms and molecules jammed closely together - bands - better conductor than liquids and liquids are better conductor than gases - capable of melts - classified based on their structure into crystals and amorphous solids - composed of atoms held together by attractive or cohesive forces -

rigid structure, and tend to resist any changes to their volume or shape * react rather slowly, liquids more quickly, and gases more quickly. * retain both volume and shape. * settle to the bottom forming a layer of sludge. + Mixture: Chemistry :: Words * Solids can be mixtures also. Many kinds of soil and rock are mixtures of different minerals. + Ruminant, How rumination works, Details: Mammals * The four parts of the stomach are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. In the first two chambers, the rumen and the reticulum, the food is mixed with saliva and separates into layers of solid and liquid material. Solids clump together to form the cud or bolus. + Solid-state chemistry, Synthetic methods, Oven techniques, Gas reactions: Chemistry * Many solids react readily with reactive gases such as chlorine, iodine, oxygen or others. Such reactions are often carried out in a tube with open ended on both sides and through which the gas flows. In that case stoichiometric information can be obtained during the reaction. That information helps identify the products. + States of matter, Common States of Matter, Solids * In a 'solid', the positions of atoms are fixed relative to each other over long time. This cohesion is provided by metallic, covalent or ionic bonds. Only solids can be pushed on by a force without changing shape, which means that they can be resistant to deformation. Solids also tend to be strong enough to hold their own shape in a container. Solids are generally denser than liquids.
