Substance X has a fixed volume, and the attraction between its particles is strong. Substance Y has widely spread out particles and can be compressed. What can most likely be concluded about these substances?
Substance X is a crystal, and substance Y is a liquid.
Substance X is a gas, and substance Y is a plasma.
Substance X is a plasma, and substance Y is a crystal.
Substance X is a solid, and substance Y is a plasma.

Among the choices given, the correct answer is the first option. Substance X most likely is a crystal, and substance Y most likely is a liquid. Substance X having a fixed volume describes a crystal because crystals occupy a certain volume. Substance Y is a liquid because liquids can still be compressed further in order to attain a more packed structure.
