Best Answer

Because of Particles, particles are microscopic specks that make up everything and everyone, when something is a solid the particles are all packed into each other and they vibrate, but since they are so tiny the vibrating is not seen, Solids can also not be poured, have a fixed shaped and can be weighed,

A liguids particles have a little more room and move around a litle bit more, Liquids can be poured, have no fixed shape and can be weighed.
