A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure. As such, it is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, gas, and plasma), and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape. A liquid is made up of tiny vibrating particles of matter, such as atoms, held together by intermolecular bonds.
Solids, liquids, gases All materials which you see around you are either solids, liquids or gases. Solids canbe recognised because they are firm and keep their own shape. We can explain whatwe mean by this using the example of water. Ice is solid water.
