Respuesta :

Answer: The image is most likely representing the solid state of matter.

Explanation:

There are 4 states of matter:

  • Solid state: In this state of matter, the particles are closely packed and they do not have any space between them. Thus, this state of matter has the highest intermolecular forces of attraction between them.
  • Liquid state: In this state of matter, the particles are present in random and irregular pattern. The particles are closely arranged but they can move from one place to another. The intermolecular forces between the particles are less as compared to the solid state.
  • Gaseous state: In this state, the particles are loosely arranged and have a lot of space between them. Thus, this state of matter has the lowest intermolecular forces of attraction between them.
  • Plasma state: In this state of matter, a hot ionized gas consisting of equal number of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons are present.

In the given image, the particles are packed closely to each other. There is no space between them.

Hence, the image is most likely representing the solid state of matter.
