You’re saying wood isn’t a solid.
And you call me stupid. :lol:and men chop wood in half with their bare hands, so men are solids ? … though in your case between the ears i’d say possibly, you stick to the slow cooked chilli i’ll do the science eh :wink:
According to Sir Actors logic a wood louse is a solid :shock:

May I apologise for daring to express an opinion which doesn’t match that of the mighty (ex-chatguide) pete?
The dictionary’s definition is quite different to yours though;
A solid is
a body or object having three dimensions (length, breadth, and thickness).
a solid substance or body; a substance exhibiting rigidity.Maybe you should write to the publishers of the Oxford Dictionary to let them know they’ve made a mistake……
That is solid not a solid, bone is solid but it’s not A solid, were talking science not slow cooking and you didnt give an opinion now did you, you tried to be a smart ass and sarcastic. or should i look up opinion for you … now go whinge about me and dawny being cruel to poor Sir Actor eh
definition of solid state of matter as according to wikipedia
A solid object is in the states of matter characterized by resistance to deformation and changes of volume. At the microscopic scale, a solid has these properties :
The atoms or molecules that compose the solid are packed closely together.
These constituent elements have fixed positions in space relative to each other. This accounts for the solid’s rigidity. In mineralogy and crystallography, a crystal structure is a unique arrangement of atoms in a crystal. A crystal structure is composed of a unit cell, a set of atoms arranged in a particular way; which is periodically repeated in three dimensions on a lattice. The spacing between unit cells in various directions is called its lattice parameters. The symmetry properties of the crystal are embodied in its space group. A crystal’s structure and symmetry play a role in determining many of its properties, such as cleavage, electronic band structure, and optical properties.
If sufficient force is applied, either of these properties can be disrupted, causing permanent deformation.
Because solids have thermal energy, their atoms vibrate. However, this movement is very small, and cannot be observed or felt under ordinary conditions.
hmm, not as in depth as I would like, but the best generic definition I could find on short notice
Thankyou, i’ve learned a lot about solids today lol.. And there was me thinking it’s what children are weened onto after bottle feeding.. :lol:
