THE STATES OF MATTER


All matter exists in three states:
  • Solid: solids have a fixed volume and a shape which does not change.
  • Liquid: liquids have a fixed volume, but their shape can change. They adopt the shape of the container they are in. Liquids can flow from one place to another.
  • Gas: gases do not have a fixed shape or a fixed volume. They adopt the shape and the volume of the container they are in.
