• The molecules of solids are tightly packed

• ​Solids have a fixed shaped and volume

• Rigid structure

​

Solids

• The molecules in a liquid are flowing freely

• Liquids can easily acquire the shape of the container

Liquids

• a type of matter with specific properties that make it less rigid than a solid but more rigid than a gas

• Gases do not have any fixed shape of volume

• ​Molecules are far apart from each other

GAS

• Heat

They get affected by:

• Solid

• Liquid

• Gas

The three states of matter are :

To sum it up......

Molecules

• could be tight or loose, depending on the state of matter
