Question

which particles are very far apart from each other, are constantly moving, and have no definite shape or volume?
solids
liquids
gases
water

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze the properties of each state of matter:

• Solids: Particles are closely packed, have a definite shape and volume. Eliminate this option.
• Liquids: Particles are close but can move, have a definite volume but no definite shape. Eliminate this option.
• Gases: Particles are very far apart, move freely, and have no definite shape or volume. This matches the description.
• Water: Water is a substance (can be solid, liquid, or gas), not a state of matter with the described properties. Eliminate this option.

Answer:

C. Gases
