Definition
States of Matter refer to the physical forms substances can exist in, such as solid, liquid, and gas. Liquids are incompressible due to closely packed molecules, while gases are compressible since their molecules are far apart. Understanding the differences in molecular arrangement helps explain properties like compressibility and density.
