Question

Differentiate solid materials when bent and when pressed, pls help me!

Answer 1

Answer:

 When pressing a solid material it can take a different shape or change in size, however when bending a solid material this does not happen.

Explanation:

Solid state materials at a certain temperature are characterized by:

• present a high cohesion between the molecules that form it (the particles are united by very high attractive forces that make them remain almost fixed)
• have a constant shape and volume often forming characteristic geometric structures such as crystalline structures
• they are incompressible
• are resistant to fragmentation
• they do not have fluidity because the particles can only vibrate around fixed positions

A flexible material cannot be molded and only accepts shape changes when bending.

You do not get new materials when pressing a solid material.
