Solid    
''' A solid object is in the states of matter characterized by resistance to deformation and changes of volume. At the microscopic scale, a solid has these properties : The branch of physics that deals with solids is called solid-state physics,...
Liquid A liquid will usually assume the shape of its container  
Liquid is one of the principal states of matter. A liquid is a fluid that has the particles loose and can freely form a distinct surface at the boundaries of its bulk material. The surface is a free surface where the liquid is not constrained by a...
Gas Gas phase particles (atoms, molecules, or ions.)  
In physics, a gas is a state of matter, consisting of a collection of particles (molecule, atom, ion, electron, etc.) without a definite shape or volume that are in more or less random motion. Due to the electronic nature of the aforementioned...
Plasma Wimshurst Plasma Arc  
In physics and chemistry, plasma is an ion gas, in which a certain proportion of electron are free rather than being bound to an atom or molecule. The ability of the positive and negative charges to move somewhat independently makes the plasma...
