The state of matter in which particles are widely spaced and move freely with high kinetic energy is

  1. Solid
  2. Liquid
  3. Gas ✓
  4. Plasma

Explanation

Gas particles spread far apart and move freely. They have high kinetic energy and bounce around rapidly. Gases fill any container completely.

Solids have particles close together that barely move. Liquids slide past each other. Plasma is ionized gas.

Remember: Gases have no fixed shape or volume. They expand to fill available space.
