Answer:

Made up of particles packed closely together, having both definite shape and definite volume

Explanation:

There are three states in which matter exists; which are solid, liquid and gas.

Solid matter consists of particles that are highly compact with each constituting particles closely linked to the other constituting particles. The constituent particles in solid matters have insignificant movement; this gives the solid a definite shape (irrespective of the shape of the container it is stored) and definite volume.

Same cannot be said about liquid and gaseous matter because the constituent particles in them (liquid and gases) move freely within the matter. Hence, they have indefinite shape and assume the shape of the container they are stored.

The enthalpy of formation of liquid ethanol (c2h5oh) is −277.6 kj/mol. what is the equation that represents the formation of liq
jeyben [28]
The enthalpy of formation has a negative sign, which means that the reaction is exothermic. In other words, when ethanol is formed, heat is released to the surroundings as a by-product. The reaction for the formation of ethanol is written below:

<em>C₂H₄ + H₂O → C₂H₅OH</em>
