They both have mass and volume or both are matter (Thats the same thing just worded differently)

Both solid and gas have no fixed shape and can take on the shape of their container. They both have particles that are far apart compared to liquids. Both states have higher energy levels compared to liquids.
Liquids: Liquids do not have a set shape, similar to gases, but do have a set volume similar to a solid.
Gas: Gases do not have a set shape, which is similar to a liquid and also don't have a set volume.
Solid: A solid does have a set volume similar to a liquid and also a has a set shape.
They are states of matter. They follow the kinetic theory of matter. They possess potential energy. They are made of particles, etc. etc.
they all contain molecules
Yes, a gas is the same as a solid except the molecules are moving farther apart. In a solid they are bunched together.
Deposition is the conversion of a gas to a solid
liquid
The four phases of matter that can change between solid, liquid, gas, and plasma are: melting (solid to liquid), freezing (liquid to solid), vaporization (liquid to gas), and ionization (gas to plasma).
