Question

  1. match the descriptions with the states of matter. matter has a defined shape and volume that will not change. matter does not have a defined shape but still retains a defined volume and has visc matter cannot be seen, has weak or no attractive forces, and will expand to fill a cont shape or volume. this matter is made of extremely hot particles that contain a high amount of energy

Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  1. For "Matter has a defined shape and volume that will not change": Solids have a fixed shape and volume because their particles are closely packed and have strong intermolecular forces holding them in place. So this description matches Solid.
  2. For "Matter does not have a defined shape but still retains a defined volume and has viscosity": Liquids take the shape of their container (no fixed shape) but have a fixed volume. They also exhibit viscosity (resistance to flow). So this description matches Liquid.
  3. For "Matter cannot be seen, has weak or no attractive forces, and will expand to fill a container, taking its shape or volume": Gases have particles with very weak intermolecular forces, are often invisible, and expand to fill their container (no fixed shape or volume). So this description matches Gas.
  4. For "This matter is made of extremely hot particles that contain a high amount of energy": Plasma is a state of matter where particles are extremely hot and have high energy (ionized gas, common in stars, lightning, etc.). So this description matches Plasma.

Answer:

  1. Matter has a defined shape and volume that will not change: Solid
  2. Matter does not have a defined shape but still retains a defined volume and has viscosity: Liquid
  3. Matter cannot be seen, has weak or no attractive forces, and will expand to fill a container, taking its shape or volume: Gas
  4. This matter is made of extremely hot particles that contain a high amount of energy: Plasma
