Can all materials exist as solids, liquids, and gases at various temperatures? Explain

What will be an ideal response?


Most simple, small atoms and molecules can exist in all three states of matter – solids, liquids, and gases. In some cases, especially when the molecules are large, the decomposition temperature of the material is lower than the melting point and therefore, increasing the temperature will cause decomposition before melting. Very large molecules will rarely exist as gases.
