Key Points
- Matter can exist in one of three main states: solid, liquid, or gas.
- Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. A solid will retain its shape; the particles are not free to move around.
- The liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. It will take the shape of its container. Particles can move about within a liquid, but they are packed densely enough that volume is maintained.
- The gaseous matter is composed of particles packed so loosely that it has neither a defined shape nor a defined volume. A gas can be compressed.
