Difference Among Solid, Liquid and Gas Everything that surrounds us, such as air, food, water, plants, animals, vehicles, clothes and so forth is made up of matter. The matter is a collection of particles and is anything that has mass and occupies space. There are three fundamental states of matter, i.e. solid, liquid and gas. The states of matter take place due to the variations in the molecules of matter. While solids have a definite size and shape, liquids flow to take the shape of the beaker and gases diffuse to fill the available volume completely. The difference between solid, liquid and gas lies in their properties, which we are going to discuss in this article.
