Usually a liquid, but some solids, like ice, have the molecules more spread apart, making it less dense than the liquid. If, by "loosely packed," you mean being able to slide past each other, then the liquid is always the answer.
Loosely packed
A solid

a solid
Solid Materials hold their shape because the molecules are bound to each other, all solids have the ability to hold their shape when forces are applied. ** Look in your book. If you have CPO Focus on Physical Science, it is in Chapter 5 section 2 page 103 **
How close together the molecules (particles) are in a substance/material. Solids are closely packed, liquids are loosely packed, and gas are very loose, freely moving molecules.

what is the measure if how tightly matter is packed into a givin volume of a substance
The molecules of liquids and gasses are not tightly arranged or packed. It is due to this arrangement they can move freely. Thus, take the shape of the container. Whereas in solids the molecules are tightly arranged they don't have place to move. Thus ,they don't take the shape of the container.
certain molecules are more tightly packed than others
Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases

How close together the molecules (particles) are in a substance/material. Solids are closely packed, liquids are loosely packed, and gas are very loose, freely moving molecules.
Solids have closely-packed molecules, and very little energy Liquids have loosely-packed molecules and some energy, and gasses have very lose, free molecules, and very high energy.
Liquid molecules are very tightly packed while in gas it is loose.
Chromosomes are tightly packed DNA. When DNA is not tightly packed it is called chromatin. Chromosomes only exist during mitosis or meiosis.
Liquid molecules are very tightly packed while in gas it is loose.
Solids are a phase of matter in which the molecules are packed together and can only move together. The molecuules in liquids have some space to move... Ex of solids: rocks, hat, pencil......anything you can hold on to LIQUIDS: water, juice, soda........

Liquids are difficult to compress because of their molecules. Since their molecules are already tightly packed together, they cannot be compressed much more. Doing so can only slightly alter their volume.
