Liquids
The molecules of liquids have a moderate force of attraction; the force between molecules is less than solids and more than gases. This results in the movement of molecules more easily and freely within liquids. The molecular movement results in liquids having a definite and fixed volume. Liquids take the shape of the container they are stored in as the molecules move to fill the space. They have no definite shape and have the ability to flow. Liquids can flow; thus, they are also called “fluid.” Liquids are not hard. When frozen they get hard. For example, when water is frozen below 0 degrees Celsius, it hardens into ice. Some examples of liquids are: water, oils, milk, juices, etc.
Gases
The molecules in gases have a very weak force of attraction between them and are very loosely packed. Thus they do not have a definite shape, and they take the shape of the container. Due to their molecular structure, gases do not have a definite volume also and become the volume of the container in which they are kept. Gases can flow easily; they can be shown simply by lighting incense. The smell of the incense travels from one part of the room to another. Gases are not hard. They can be compressed easily as they have a lot of space between the molecules. Some examples of gases are: water vapor, LPG, oxygen, carbon-dioxide, etc.
