Pronunciation & Spelling
All listed words share the spelling suffix -ity, but only words with the stressed vowel /ɪ/ and consonant /d/ (like validity itself) are exact rhymes. Validity's stressed syllable is /lɪd/; none of these words have the same consonant cluster, so they do not rhyme perfectly despite the common ending.
