Cohesive solids means, the particle to particle interaction in the solid is more.
As the interaction is more in wet clay, it is cohesive solid.

Cohesive soil does not crumble. It can be molded easily when wet, and is hard to break up when dry. Clay is a very fine-grained soil, and is very cohesive. Soil that has little or no water in it, or oven-dry, can crumble easily, and will not hold together when excavated.
