Rigidity:
Rigidity is the physical property of being stiff and resistance to bending or flowing. Solids are highly rigid. Liquids and gases are not rigid. Thus, they can easily flow and bend. Thus, liquids and gases are called fluids.
Compressibility:
Compressibility is the property of being able to occupy less space. Solids cannot be compressed easily. Liquids can be compressed but only to a limit. Gases are highly compressible.
Fluidity:
Fluidity is the ability to flow. Liquids and gases can flow. Thus, they are known as fluids.
Filling a gas container:
Gases are highly compressible. Thus, large volumes of gases are compressed and stored in containers so that they are easier to store and transport.
Shape:
Solids have definite shape and retain their shape till an outside force changes its shape. Liquids and gases do not have a definite shape. They take the shape of the container in which they are kept.
Kinetic Energy:
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by objects by virtue of their motion. The greater the speed of motion, the larger is the kinetic energy. The particles of matter are continuously moving. They possess the kinetic energy. The motion of the particles is the maximum in solid and is the minimum in gases. Thus, the particles of solid have the maximum kinetic energy and the particles of gases have the minimum kinetic energy. The particles of liquid have the kinetic energy that is intermediate that of the solids and gases.
Density:
Density is defined as the mass per unit volume. Density refers to the amount of matter that is present per unit volume. Solids are known to have highest density and gases lowest density. Liquids have a density that is intermediate that of the solids and liquids.

Rigidity: The condition which do not alters the shape of solids.
Compressibility: Compressing particles of gases
is called compressiblity.
Filling a gas container: In the laboratory, after the preparation of gases, they are collected in gas jar. This is called filling a gas container.
Fludity: Fluidity means flowing of liquids freely.
Shape: Things are in which form is called shape.
Kinetic energy: The energy possessed by moving body is called kinestic energy.
Density: Density is the mass per unit.
