Answer:
Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of atoms, molecules, and/or ions, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.The looser arrangement of particles is what allows liquids to take on the shape of their container. The intermolecular forces between particles in liquid determine properties like viscosity and surface tension. Particles in a liquid are higher in energy than the solid state, but lower in energy than the gas state.
