== Why This Works ==

The ''States of Matter'' are the four states, or forms, that we find all matter around us in. ''Solids'' are when matter is condensed, and it does not change shape if it is put into a container. A solid will keep its shape under normal circumstances, and will resist changing shape. The atoms in a solid are in a rigid formation, and will stay in that formation unless an outside force acts on them. ''Liquids'' are when matter is less condensed, and will adjust to fill the shape of a container. Liquids will spread out inside a container, such as a bottle, but won't separate to try and fill a container fully. The atoms in a liquid are still close to each other, but they are no longer in a rigid formation, and can move past each other. ''Gases'' are much less dense than liquids, and will also adjust to fill a container. However, a gas will spread out to try and fill the entire container, unlike a liquid that will collect into a portion of the container. The atoms in a gas are no longer collecting together, and can freely move around and past each other. Gases have more energy than liquids, and liquids have more energy than solids. ''Plasmas'' have more energy than gases, and behave similar to gases. The main difference between plasmas and gases is with their electrons. The atoms in a plasma are no longer sliding past each other, because their electrons are no longer staying in place and are jumping around everywhere. They will instead try to fly away from each other, and by doing so they release extra energy as light, sound and heat.
