Matter, when increasing in energy, can change from a solid to a liquid or a liquid to a gas, giving the molecules of the matter more movement and ability to move away from other molecules.

Solids are the least energized state of matter, in which the matter is in a constant, stable place around other molecules and can only vibrate. They have both constant volume and shape

When Solids melt, they turn into 'unstuck' liquids that have constant volume but not constant shape.

When liquids evaporate, they transform into a state that allows free movement of each molecule, creating gas. This state has no definite volume nor shape.

When matter changes its state what happens?

When matter changes its state, its physical properties such as density, shape, and volume also change. This change in state usually involves the absorption or release of energy. The three common states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas, and transitions between these states involve changes in the arrangement and movement of particles.
