Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the characteristics of each phase of matter
  • Solid: Atoms are tightly packed and vibrate slowly.
  • Liquid: Atoms are less tightly packed than in solids and move more freely.
  • Gas: Atoms are far apart and move very quickly.
  • Plasma: Atoms are ionized and move extremely fast.
Step 2: Match the characteristics to the given options

The question asks for the phase of matter where atoms are tightly packed and vibrate slowly. This description matches the characteristics of a solid.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{Solid}}\)
