What are the three fundamental states of matter? Explain them briefly.
(N/A) The three fundamental states of matter are:
$1$. Solid: Particles are closely packed in a fixed structure,having a definite shape and volume.
$2$. Liquid: Particles are less tightly packed than in solids,having a definite volume but no fixed shape; they take the shape of the container.
$3$. Gas: Particles are far apart and move randomly,having neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.

View SolutionModern vacuum pumps can evacuate a vessel down to a pressure of $4.0 \times 10^{-15} \, atm$ at room temperature $(300 \, K)$. Taking $R = 8.0 \, J \cdot K^{-1} \cdot mol^{-1}$,$1 \, atm = 10^5 \, Pa$,and $N_A = 6 \times 10^{23} \, mol^{-1}$,the mean distance between molecules of gas in an evacuated vessel will be of the order of:
