Hawaii (8th smallest state. The 7 smaller ones are all on the east coast, well east of the Mississippi.)

The Mississippi river is the eastern border of Arkansas - sort of. Floods and earthquakes have changed the flow of the Mississippi river over the centuries. Most of Arkansas is west of the Mississippi river but some of it is eest of the Mississippi river and only accessible from an adjoining state.
