In this composition of matter. We will be talking about the intermolecular force exerted between the molecules. Although there are so many factors behind the existence of physical composition of matter but here basically we will be dealing with the forces applied between molecules or particles. On this basis, it is divided into 3 types, i.e., solid, liquid and gases.

Solid:

тАв They have a rigid structure that cannot be changed easily.
тАв They have fixed shapes and volumes.
тАв They have the lowest energy.
тАв The molecules are regular and closely arranged.
тАв It cannot flow.
тАв It is difficult to compress.
тАв They have very little intermolecular space.
тАв The intermolecular attraction is high.
тАв In most of the solid substance, sound traveling seed is high.
тАв It occupies definite space .
тАв They need not any storage to contain.

Liquid:

тАв They have a definite volume.
тАв They donтАЩt have definite shapes as they can take the shape of the container in which they are kept.
тАв They can flow easily from higher to lower levels.
тАв They donтАЩt have any particular structure.
тАв It is nearly difficult to compress.
тАв The molecules are randomly placed and little sparsely arranged.
тАв They have medium energy.
тАв They have more molecular space.
тАв They can propagate sound easily but less than solids.
тАв It occupies space but can adjust.
тАв They need a container for storage.

Gas:

тАв They do not have a definite shape but fills completely in the container in which they are filled.
тАв They do not have definite volume.
тАв They do not require more space, as they can fill in completely in the given container despite its size.
тАв They can be compressed very easily.
тАв They have the highest energy.
тАв The molecules are randomly placed and more sparsely arranged.
тАв They have the lowest sound speed among all.
тАв They need a closed container for storage.
