In a(n) (a) , the particles are packed closely together, but they can move past each other freely.
The common state of matter that does not have a definite shape or a definite volume is a(n) (a) .
The characteristic temperature at which a pure solid changes to a liquid is its (a) point.
A shrinking puddle is an example of (a) , or vaporization that takes place only on the surface.
