– Matter is consist of particles and it occupies space.
-Matters are found in 5 states – solid state, liquid state, gaseous state, plasma state and Bose-Einstein condensate
state.
Various states of matter:
| Solid | Liquid | Gaseous | Plasma | Bose-Einstein Condensate |
| – They has shape and volume. | – They have definite volume but not shape | – No shape no volume | – They consist of
super energitic and sauper excited particles. |
– It can be formed artificially by cooling gas extremely low density. |
| – they are rigid. High force required to change shape. | – They are not rigid. Their shape can be changed. | – Gas particles are in random motion. | – At higher temperature plasma glows with special color. |
