ability to change shape&volume

Answer 1

Go on the web. Type in 'properties of the states of matter' in the search criteria. All kinds of sites will appear for you to choose from and you can find the answers to your question = all there. A good learning experience for you.

Answer 2

solids:

particles are quite rigid and compact, fixed volume and shape, although they still vibrate in their fixed position...attractions keeps them together

liquids:

particles still close enough to be attractive, however they are not as rigid and move around more freely, swapping positions....fixed volume(at a fixed temperature) but will take up the shape of it's container


gases:

particles are further apart, little attraction between them...move more rapidly in a random manner, collide and bounce off each other and the walls of the container...fits and fills the shape of the container regardless of volume...because the particles are spread further apart
