Question

most of the substances around you exist in three common states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas.
in each state of matter, the particles in a substance behave in a different way:

• in a solid, particles are packed together tightly.
• in a liquid, particles are also close together, but they are able to slide past one another.
• in a gas, particles are spread far apart, and they move quickly.

match each state of matter to the correct diagram.
gas solid liquid

Explanation:

Particles in a solid are tightly - packed, which matches the second diagram. Particles in a liquid are close but can slide past each other, matching the third diagram. Particles in a gas are far apart and move quickly, matching the first diagram.

Answer:

First diagram: gas
Second diagram: solid
Third diagram: liquid
