Gas State
Gas is made up of individual atoms, elemental molecules made from one type of atom. It is not rigid, has no fixed volume or shape. This substance can only be contained if it is fully surrounded by a container. You can easily put your hand through it.
Some examples of a gas are the air we breathe, steam, helium, etc.
Phases
