State of Matter

The three states of matter are solids, liquids, and gases. Solids have a fixed shape and volume, while liquids have a fixed volume but take the shape of their container. Gases have neither a fixed shape nor volume and spread out to fill their container. Solids undergo changes of state such as melting and freezing, while liquids may evaporate and condense as they transition between liquid and gas states. The arrangement of particles in a gas is such that they are far apart from each other and spread out to fill the available space.
