Explanation

The three states of matter are classified on the basis of differences of certain physical properties such as physical existence; solids are physically hard, they have fixed shape and size. Liquids do not have any fixed shape and size, they changed according to the shape of beakers in which they are placed. Gases do not have a fixed shape or volume.
