Properties of Solids, Liquids, and Gases
The study of matter involves a comprehensive exploration of its fundamental states: solids, liquids, and gases. Understanding the properties that characterize these distinct phases is pivotal in unraveling the mysteries of the physical world. Solids possess a fixed shape and volume, with tightly packed particles exhibiting minimal mobility. Liquids, on the other hand, exhibit a fluidity that allows them to conform to the shape of their container while maintaining a constant volume. Gases, with their expansive nature, lack a fixed shape or volume, filling the entirety of their container. This examination of the properties of solids, liquids, and gases forms the basis for elucidating the diverse behaviors exhibited by matter in its various states.
