Gas is a state of matter with neither fixed volume nor fixed shape. It is a compressible form of fluid, in contrast to a liquid. A pure gas consists of individual atoms, or molecules. Pure gases can a
Suspended particulates indicate the movement of the surrounding gas.

Bromine in both liquid and gas state, encased inside acrylic in solid state
Helium's orange glow in its plasma state
Artificial plasma produced in air by a Jacob's Ladder. The extremely strong potential difference between the two rods ionize particles in the air, creating a plasma.
