QUESTION

What are the three states of matter?

Gasses, liquids and crystalline solids.

The three ordinary states of matter are gasses, liquids and crystalline solids.

However, there are other less-common states of matter. Here are a few examples:

  1. glass - an amorphous solid material that has a molecular structure somewhat like a liquid (no long-range order) but is cool enough that the atoms or molecules are effectively frozen into place.

  2. colloid - a dispersed mixture of two immiscible substances. Milk is a common example, where milk fat particles are suspended in water.

  3. plasma - a collection of ionized particles similar to a gas

  4. liquid crystal - a collection of molecules that can flow like an ordinary liquid, but where the molecules may orient themselves or be oriented in an external electric field.
