Is mud a liquid or solid?
Mud is considered a semi-solid mixture of water and some combination of soil, silt, and clay. It does not have a fixed shape and can flow like a liquid but also hold its form like a solid. So, mud exhibits properties of both a liquid and a solid.
What happens to the molecules when there is a change in state from liquid to solid?
When a liquid changes to the solid state, the molecules slow down so that they only vibrate in place and can no longer flow like a liquid.
What is the state of matter in the upper mantle?
solid
What is the state between a solid and a liquid?
The state between a solid and a liquid is called a semi-solid or colloidal state. In this state, the substance exhibits properties of both solids and liquids, such as the ability to flow like a liquid while maintaining some structural integrity like a solid. Examples include gels or colloids.
Can a solid be a fluid?
No. However, there are substances that don't fit neatly into a solid/liquid dichotomy. Glasses, for example, are much more like solids than they are like liquids, but they do have some liquid-like characteristics. Liquid crystals are liquids that show some solid-like characteristics. Viscoelastic materials (Silly Putty is probably the best known example) are somewhere in between.
Will a solid flow up?
This depends on how dense the solid is, and how dense the liquid is.
What would be classified as a fluid. solid. liquid. gas. gas and solid. or liquid and gas?
liquid and gas because they both have an ability to flow
Is A Laptop Liquid Solid Or gas?
It is solid as it doesn't flow like a liquid or has vast space between its molecules like gases.
Does solid flow?
in some cases yes e.g sugar is a solid but moves like a liquid so yes solids can flow
Is sand a solid a liquid or gas?
Sand is a solid, made up of tiny particles of rocks and minerals. It does not flow like a liquid or disperse like a gas.
Can a solid flow?
yes indeed solids can flow as well. all states of matter are fluids.
Why solid do not flow as liquid and gases do?
Because their intermolecular forces are very high relative to liquid and gas

solid
How does the strength of liquids intermolecular forces affect its viscosity?
liquid's particles are not as close as to that of the solid the very reason why it cannot be held.because of this ability of liquid to flow, it affects the forces of a liquid to flow thoroughly.
Is a fluid is liquid or a solid?
A fluid is NOT a solid. A fluid is a type of matter that flows. A fluid is liquid and gases.
