A piece of chalk can be broken into small particles by hammering but a piece of iron cannot be broken into small particles by hammering. Which characteristic of the particles of matter is illustrated by these observations?

Matter is made up of small particles which attract each other and the attraction differs from substance to substance. Chalk breaks easily on hammering but iron cannot be broken which shows that the particles of iron attract each other with greater force.
