The forces of attraction between particles in a gas under ordinary conditions can be ignored because they are very small. Because of this, most gases in ordinary conditions act as ideal gases.

Is dark matter Solid liquid or gas?

We do not know as we have not found any dark matter to examine. The only way we detect it and know it exists is due to its gravitational attraction of the ordinary matter we can see. One speculation when neutrinos were discovered to have tiny nonzero masses was that dark matter might be neutrinos. Another speculation is that dark matter is only ordinary matter, but its in another separate universe in a shared higher dimensional spacetime. Nobody knows.


Is a proton the smallest particle of a ordinary matter?

No. Electron is roughly 1/2000 of proton in mass. If the question is about spacial size, it is not a meaningful question. The idea that elementary particles are like a physical ping pong ball (but smaller) is incorrect. Elementary particles are not similar to the every day object except in the fact, that they possess energy and momentum, can have electrical charge, magnetic moment and angular momentum.

What does the proportionality constant k in coulombs law is huge in ordinary units whereas the proportionality constant g in newtons law of gravition is tiny mean?

It means that the force of electrical attraction (or repulsion) between two particles with units charges will be greater than the gravitational attraction between two particles with unit mass which are the same distance apart.
