State

A solid is a state of matter with a definite shape and a volume nearly independent of pressure.

Show

An ice cube keeps its shape and size whether it sits in a bowl or on a plate.

Watch for

A solid holding its shape is not the same as being incompressible — its volume only stays nearly fixed under ordinary pressures.
