The constant temperature at which a liquid turns into solid by giving out heat energy is called a freezing point of that liquid (The process of change of matter from liquid state to solid state is called freezing orsolidification). ... Particles now move closer,inter-particle space reduces, and change of state occurs.

What is the interparticle space in solids?

Inter-particle distance is the space between the particles in matter. Particles in solids are very close to each other, and the attractive forces are large enough to hold the particles in fixed positions.

Do solids have interparticle space?

The particles in the solid are touching with very little space between them. The particles in a liquid usually are still touching but there are some spaces between them. The gas particles have big distances between them.
