All materials contains atoms or molecules.
The kinetic theory of matter can be used to explain how solids, liquids and gases are interchangeable as a result of increase or decrease in heat energy. When an object is heated the motion of the particles increases as the particles become more energetic.
All matter is made of atoms. Liquids, solids and gases are all made of atoms. It is the bond between atoms that make a substance solid or liquid.
Solids can resemble liquids in the sense that their particles can still flow or move past each other, although at a much slower rate compared to liquids. This property is known as plasticity and allows solids to change shape or deform under certain conditions.
Diffusion in solids is typically slow because the particles are tightly packed and have limited space to move around. Additionally, the intermolecular forces holding solid particles in place make it difficult for them to overcome these forces and move through the solid. This results in slower diffusion rates compared to liquids and gases.
Solids have a definite shape and volume, like a rock or a book. Liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container, like water or juice. Gases have no definite shape or volume and fill the space they are in, like air or helium.
Atoms, which can be broken down to electrons, protons, and neutrons.
Particles are the tiny building blocks that make up everything around us, including solids, liquids, and gases. They are so small that we can't see them with our eyes; instead, we can think of them as tiny specks or dots. In solids, particles are close together and vibrate in place, while in liquids, they are more spread out and can move around each other. In gases, particles are far apart and move freely, which is why gases can fill up any space they are in.
Yes.
Solids transmit sound and vibration better than liquids and gases because solids' particles molecule's are stuck close together but gas' particles are far off wandering around while liquid's particles are not so close but closer than gas . The best sound/vibration creator is solids then liquids and last gases . Plus to put it in a way that any first grader would say is that a solid is hard so when you bang them together they make an astronomical sound . Its nothing really complex .
Any of them can have kinetic energy - which is the energy "stored" in movement. So, a solid object moving has kinetic energy. In liquids and gasses, the atoms / molecules that make them up are in constant motion too, so they have a little kinetic energy as a result.

Gases are made when you heat up solids or liquids. Liquids are made when you cool down gases or heat up solids. Solids are made when you cool down gases or solids. When you heat up solids they make liquids and when you heat up liquids it makes gases. When you heat up gases it makes plasma (plas-mu) but that is very very very very very very hard to make.
Gases are free to completely fill any closed container. (or escape if it is not closed.)Gases are easily compressed. Gases can be chilled to a liquid form.Liquids will only fill their container till the capacity needed is filled. Liquids are difficult to compress. Liquids can be chilled to a solid form. (Helium excepted).Solids are of a fixed shape at any moment (though we may bend them etc), and are very difficult to compress.And of course, the inverse applies, a solid may be warmed to make a liquid, and further warming of a liquid will make it into a gas.[There are some other states of matter, which we ignore here.]
Particles within are limited to vibrational motion, unlike the particles which make up liquids which can have vibrational & translational motion, and gaseous particles which have vibrational, translational and rotational motion.
Sound needs a medium to travel through, which means there must be particles present for it to travel (it cannot travel in a vacuum). Sound is formed by a vibrating object, and the vibrations are passed along the particles until they reach your ear, where they make your eardrum vibrate etc. This works in solid, liquid, and gases, as there are particles in all of them to pass along the vibrations. It works fastest in solids, as the particles are closest together, so can pass the vibrations on quicker. In liquids, the particles are still close, but less tightly packed, so sound travels a little slower than in solids. In gases, the sound travels even slower than in liquids, as the particles are very spaced out, so it takes a while to pass on the vibrations. Hope that helped!
They are all something in something else. Suspensions are colloids. Colloids are something small dispersed in something else - solids in liquids (a suspension), gases in liquids, gases in solids etc etc Solutions are one phase - a liquid, but at least 2 compounds make up that phase.
Sound travels the fastest in solids. Solids being the most denser make sound travel fastest as compared to liquids and gases which have speed of sound relatively less than solids.
