Describe each of the three states of matter.
A gas has no definite shape and no definite volume. The molecules are very spread out. A liquid has a definite volume but no definite shape. The molecules are spread out, but not as much as those in a gas. A solid has a definite shape and a definite volume. The molecules are tightly packed together.
