It's theoretically a liquid - however - it's a bit more complicated than that. Paint is a 'suspension' - in that there are microscopic particles of powdered pigments suspended in (usually) a liquid that evaporates, Once the paint is in contact with the air - the liquid part evaporates - leaving the coloured pigment behind.

Is paint a liquid a solid or a gas?

Paint is a suspension of solids in a liquid. When the liquid evaporates, the solids are left behind as dry paint (as opposed to the "wet paint" the signs warn you about). There will be some small amount of gas dissolved into the liquid, but it is seldom of any consequence.

How many combinations of the three states of matter are there?

There are three basic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. The number of combinations possible from these states is 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. The six possible combinations are solid-liquid-gas, solid-gas-liquid, liquid-solid-gas, liquid-gas-solid, gas-solid-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid.
