प्रश्न
Why are solids incompressible?
उत्तर
The intemuclear distance between the constituent particles (atoms, molecules or ions) in solids are very less. On bringing them further closer, there will be large repulsive force between electron clouds of these particles. Therefore, solids cannot be compressed.
