Final answer:

Glass is an amorphous solid where atoms are held together in an irregular way.


Step-by-step explanation:

Glass is an amorphous solid meaning it lacks a specific crystalline structure. In glass, the atoms are held together in an irregular way without a regular pattern. The particles in glass do not have a regular arrangement like in crystalline solids. Instead, they are randomly distributed.
