Usually yes, but the distance between the particles depends on pressure. A gas at high pressure can actually have particles fairly close together.
solids molecules are closely compacted and liquids molecules are spread apart. Both solids and liquids molecules are always moving.
Because the particles in a gas are free-moving, and spread widely apart. When they are compressed, there is extravspace that they can fit into. Liquids+solids have particles that are clos together :)
Liquids are malleable, meaning you can shape them, or they can change to fit the shape of the container they are being held in. Solids are basically classified as anything that can not(dramatically) change form or conform to another shape.
Solid- Close together Liquid- Bit farther apart Gas- Far apart
because solids have shapes To improve upon the above answer. Solids have a definite shape and size, whereas liquids and gasses do not. Liquids have definite volume, but do not have a definite shape, and gasses have no definite shape or volume.
No, they are not packed tightly together. The particles in solids are. In gas, they move in random motion and are the furthest apart, compared to solids and liquids. Hope this helps :)

They are EXACTLY the same particles but in a liquid they are further apart and free to move round as compared to the particles in the solid form which are fixed in their position, one relative to the other.
yes. solids are more dense than liquids and the particles in gases are more spread out and faster.
The particles of solids are very close and tight and are organised. The particles of liquids are randomly organised and are further apart. The molecules in gases are really far apart.

further apart and move more slowly.
The measurement of how closely particles are packed together is usually by state of matter. Gasses are measured as have particles that are further apart than liquids or solids for example.

liquids because most things is either in a form of gas or solids
Forces of attraction have a stronger effect on the behavior of liquid particles.
Sound speed depends on the vibration of the particles, the velocity in which the kinetic energy moves between the particles. Solids have particles that are very close to each other, so the transfer of kinetic energy will occur rapidly. In liquids and gases , however, the particles are far apart, so the transfer of kinetic energy from one particle to another will take time.
