State of Matter

                       States Of Matter
                       
     Mass                      Shape                   Volume                     Heating                            Compressibility             examples


Gas: A definite mass/  An indefinite shape/   Indefinite volume /  On heating it expands real large/   Easily  compressible ,  / 02, Co2,Oxygen   



Liquid: Definite mass/    Indefinite shape/   Definite volume/   On heating expands slightly/      Low compressibility/ Water, Milk, Soda    


Solid: Definite mass/ Definite shape/ Definite volume/ On heating expands real low/ No compressibility/    Rocks, Metal,Wood.


     The pattern that i recognized is that gas liquid and solid all have definite mass. 
I also notice that the more the atoms are aloud to move the easier it is to compress.
Another thing i notice is that the Mass, Shape and Volume is definite for a solid.
