Liquids particles are closer together than a gas. The density of a liquid is less than a gas. Gases are compressible because of this. Liquids do not compress.
Gases fill any container you put them in, liquids do not. Both take the shape of the container
The particles in a gas are moving much faster than a liquid.
Both liquids and gases flow.

Gasses take the shape and volume of the container
Liquid just takes the shape.
Gas particles are well separated
Gas particles bounce off each other
Liquids absorb the energy from the other particle if they bounce

The 3 differences:
1. Particles in liquids are close together with no particular arrangement,
Particles in gases are well separated with no particular arrangement.
2. Particles in liquids vibrate, move about, and slide past each other,
Particles in gases vibrate and move freely at high speeds.
3. Liquids are not easily compressible,
Gases are compressible.

liquids flows easily but gases does not flow easily
liquids assumes the shape of the container that contains it, while gases retains a fixed volume and shape.
liquids are close together with no regular arrangement, while gases are well seperated with no regular arrangement.

density, molecular motion (speed, space between atoms, etc), and the volume of gas is drastically changed by changes in temperature and pressure, unlike liquids.
