question 6
most of the water on mars is frozen solid.
if you were analysing the frozen water on mars, describe how you would expect the particles to be arranged.

Explanation:

In solids, particles are closely packed in a regular, fixed pattern. They have strong forces of attraction between them, which keeps them in place. This arrangement gives solids a definite shape and volume. Frozen water (ice) on Mars would follow the general characteristics of a solid's particle arrangement.

Answer:

The particles would be closely packed together in a regular, fixed arrangement. They would vibrate in fixed positions due to the strong intermolecular forces holding them in place. This close - packed and ordered structure is typical of solids.
