Question
6 which quote explains why solids dont take the shape of their container? a \each particle is still a regular old water molecule, hydrogen and oxygen.\ b \the particles dont move around so much, and they get locked into a rigid structure.\ c \if we boil it, itll change state, and become a gas!\ d \they move around and slide past one another pretty easily.\
The reason solids don't take the shape of their container is that their particles have limited movement and are locked in a rigid structure. Option A just describes a water - molecule composition, option C is about a state - change to gas, and option D describes the behavior of particles in liquids or gases.
