Solution:

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>How to animation-play-state property specify whether the animation is running or paused</title><!-- Set the title of the HTML document -->
<style> /* CSS style start*/
div {
width: 80px; /* Set the width of the div */
height: 120px; /* Set the height of the div */
background: #CC00CC; /* Set the background color of the div */
position: relative; /* Set the position of the div to relative */
-webkit-animation: move 8s;  /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */ /* Apply animation named "move" with a duration of 8 seconds for WebKit browsers */
-webkit-animation-play-state: running;  /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */ /* Specify that the animation is running initially for WebKit browsers */
animation: move 8s; /* Apply animation named "move" with a duration of 8 seconds */
animation-play-state: running; /* Specify that the animation is running initially */
}
/* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
@-webkit-keyframes move {
    from {left: 0px;} /* Define initial position */
    to {left: 200px;} /* Define final position */
}

@keyframes move {
    from {left: 0px;} /* Define initial position */
    to {left: 200px;} /* Define final position */
}

</style>
</head>
<body>

<p>w3resource</p>
<div></div><!-- Create a div element -->
<p>Tutorial</p>
</body>
</html>

Explanation:

This HTML document contains a paragraph element with the text "w3resource", a div element, and another paragraph element with the text "Tutorial".
CSS is used to style the div element, setting its width, height, background color, and position.
An animation named "move" is applied to the div element using the animation property, specifying the name of the animation and its duration.
The animation-play-state property is used to specify whether the animation is running initially, ensuring it starts immediately.
Keyframes are defined to animate the div from the initial position to 200px to the right over a duration of 8 seconds.
