The three most familiar states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. There are several more states of matter, but it's a bit hard to say which of them is most "familiar". Plasma is the most common state of matter in the Universe (that's what stars are made of), but that's hardly something that you encounter on a day-to-day basis. However, it can be produced in laboratories. Perhaps a supercritical fluid is closer to your everyday experience. That's occurs when a substance is above a certain pressure and a certain temperature, giving it some properties of a liquid and some properties of a gas. It is commonly used in dry cleaning, usually with carbon dioxide.

"Type" is ambiguous in this context. Do you mean isotopes? Or do you mean states of matter?
