Solution

The difference between the states of matter is as follows:
Solid
Liquid
Gas
The state of matter with negligible intermolecular space between the atoms. The state of matter with more intermolecular space than solids between the atoms. The state of matter with large intermolecular space between the atoms.
They have a strong intermolecular force of attraction between their atoms. They have a less intermolecular force of attraction than solids between their atoms. They have a negligible intermolecular force of attraction between their atoms.
They have a definite shape due to their strong intermolecular force. They do not have a definite shape. They do not have a definite shape.
They have a definite volume. They have a definite volume. They do not have a definite volume.
They possess the least kinetic energy due to the least motion of atoms. They posses more kinetic energy than solids. They possess maximum kinetic energy.
