don't know but the ancient Greeks added fire to that list and called them the four elements. so they knew of them but misunderstood them. all solids were some form of "earth", all liquids some form of "water", all gasses some form of "air", then there was fire.

What is condution?
Conduction is the transfer of heat particles from a high concentration to a low concentration in solids, liquids and gases.
What Rank specific heat of various materials from lowest to highest?
The specific heat of materials typically follows this general ranking from lowest to highest: metals (such as aluminum and copper), non-metallic solids (such as wood and plastic), liquids (such as water and oil), and gases (such as air and helium). However, it's important to note that specific heat values can vary depending on the specific material and its composition.
Who found the ruins of Pompeii?
Pompeii was FIRST discovered by the king and queen of Naples in 1592. They did not actually excavate the site, they sent men tunneling down into the ash searching for treasures to put in their palace.
Why Solids cannot be compressed easily whereas gases can easily compressed?
The molecules of a solid are as close together as they can get using electromagnetic force (that all you've got - including machines) ... whereas gas molecules are relatively far apart.
How did neon get its name?
Neon came fromNeon is a greek word (neon meaning "New One"). It was discovered in 1898 by scittusg chemist William Ramsay (1852-1916) and English Chemist Morris W.Travers in London, England. Neon was discovered when Ramsay chilled a sample of the atmosphere until it became a liquid, then warmed the liquied and captured the new gases as they boiled off. It was of three gases as krypton, xenon and neon.

How does solids liquids and gases benefit us?
All I know is that we drink liquids, breath gases, but how does solids help?
How does the kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?
Gases have the highest kinetic energy, followed by liquids, and then solids. -apex
Gases can be squashed compressedbut solids cannot?
Flow. Gases and liquids can both modify their shapes.
What is the rank of solids liquids and gases in order of particle speed from the highest speed to the lowest speed?
I think it would be Gas Liquid Solid
What are not like gases?
Solids and liquids are not like gases.
How are gases liquids and gases different?
Though both can act as fluids liquids are a different and much cooler state of matter. Gases must first become liquids before they can become solids.
