What is a matter ? Name it's types .

Answer:
There are four natural states of matter: Solids, liquids, gases and plasma. The fifth state is the man-made Bose-Einstein condensates. In a solid, particles are packed tightly together so they don't move much.
Explanation:
Matter=Matter is a substance that has mass and occupies physical space.
#Three States of Matter with Examples
There are three states of matter and below are the description of various states of matter:
1. Solids
*)The solid state is one of the fundamental states of matter.
*)Solids differ from liquids and gases by the characteristic of rigidity.
*)The molecules of solids are tightly packed because of strong intermolecular forces; they only oscillate about their mean positions.
*)Whereas, liquids and gases possess the property of fluidity and can easily flow.
*)Solids can be defined as the state of matter which has definite shape and volume and has a rigid structure.
*)Solids possess the least compressibility and thermal =expansion.
Example: Iron (Fe)
Solid State of Matter
2. Liquids
*)The molecules in a liquid are closely packed due to weak intermolecular forces.
*)These forces are weaker than solids but stronger than that of gases.
*)There is much space in between the molecules of liquids which makes their flowing ability easy.
*)Liquids can easily acquire the shape of a vessel, and they have a fixed volume.
*)Conversion of solids into liquids takes place when we increase the temperature of solids to a point where solids begin to melt.
*)Generally, the density of liquid lies between the density of solids and gases. Compressibility and thermal expansion of liquids are slightly higher than that of solids.
=Example: Water (H2O)
Liquid State of Matter
3. Gases
*)In this state of matter, distances between the molecules are large (intermolecular distance is in the range of 10−7–10−5cm)).
*)The intermolecular forces experienced between them are negligible.
*)Thus, translatory, rotatory and vibratory motions are observed prominently in gases.
*)Gases do not have any fixed shape or volume.
*)They also possess high compressibility and thermal expansion.
=Example: Oxygen (O2)
