    Matter can be classified into four states:

    1) Solid: This state is composed of uncharged particles that are held together very closely in a regular arrangement by strong intermolecular forces of attraction.

    2) Liquid: Like solids, this state is also composed of uncharged particles. However, compared to the solids these lie farther apart and are held by relatively weaker forces

    3) Gas: In this state, the interacting particles are uncharged and have a lot of space between them to move freely.

    4) Plasma: This is the fourth state of matter composed of highly charged particles which are far apart from each other and possess high kinetic energies.

    Based on the given characteristics:

    In State 4 the particles are uncharged with a relatively low separation between them. This corresponds to the liquid state.
