When the pressure on a solid is greatly increased, the volume of the solid shows almost no change.

The volume of the solid shows no change

Explanation:

Pressure only affects gaseous system. This is because the force of cohesion between the gaseous molecules are negligible (i. e very small) and their molecules are far apart hence the gaseous molecules are easily compressed. But for solid, the Particles are very close and tightly packed together with a strong force of cohesion hence pressure has no effect on it. This account for the definite shape and definite volume of solid
