Table 1 shows the density of argon in two different states.
| State of argon | Density in g/cm3\text{g/cm}^3g/cm3 |
|---|---|
| Solid argon | 1.65 |
| Gaseous argon | 0.00178 |
Explain the extremely large difference between the density of solid argon and gaseous argon in terms of the arrangement and spacing of their particles.
