  • What is a Solid? Properties and Examples
    Matter with a definite shape and volume is called a solid.

    Here's why:

    * Definite shape: Solids maintain their shape regardless of their container.

    * Definite volume: Solids occupy a fixed amount of space, meaning they have a specific volume that doesn't change easily.

    Think of a block of ice, a rock, or a metal spoon. They all have a specific shape and size that doesn't readily change.
