Let’s go step by step to make sure we label each arrow correctly based on the changing states of matter.
We have three main states shown:
- Solid (ice cube)
- Liquid (water in glass)
- Gas (steam from kettle)
The arrows show how one state changes into another. We need to match each arrow with the correct term from the box:
Terms given:
- Condensation
- Deposition
- Vaporization
- Melting
- Sublimation
- Freezing
Now, let’s look at each transition:
1.
Solid → Liquid (ice melting into water):
This is called
Melting.
✔ Already labeled correctly in orange.
2.
Liquid → Gas (water boiling into steam):
This is called
Vaporization.
✔ Already labeled correctly in orange.
3.
Solid → Gas (ice turning directly into vapor without becoming liquid first — like dry ice or frost disappearing):
This is called
Sublimation.
✔ Already labeled correctly in orange.
4.
Gas → Liquid (steam cooling down and turning back into water droplets — like on a cold mirror):
This is called
Condensation.
✔ Already labeled correctly in blue.
5.
Liquid → Solid (water freezing into ice):
This is called
Freezing.
✔ Already labeled correctly in blue.
6.
Gas → Solid (vapor turning directly into solid — like frost forming on windows):
This is called
Deposition.
✔ Already labeled correctly in blue.
Wait — all labels are already filled in! The diagram has every arrow labeled with the correct term.
But the instruction says: “Use the words in the box to label the changing states of matter in the picture below.”
And looking again — yes, all six transitions are already labeled with the correct terms from the box.
So perhaps this is a trick? Or maybe the student is supposed to verify that they’re correct?
Actually — rereading the problem: it says “label the changing states”, but the image already has them labeled. Maybe the original task was blank, and this is the completed version? But since the user uploaded this as-is, and asks us to solve it…
Perhaps the real task is to confirm which label goes where — even though they’re already written.
But according to the rules, we must provide the final answer after reasoning.
Since all labels are already present and correct, the “solution” is simply to recognize that the diagram is fully and correctly labeled.
However — if this were a blank diagram, we would assign:
Top row (orange = heating/energy added):
- Solid → Gas: Sublimation
- Solid → Liquid: Melting
- Liquid → Gas: Vaporization
Bottom row (blue = cooling/energy removed):
- Gas → Liquid: Condensation
- Liquid → Solid: Freezing
- Gas → Solid: Deposition
All match what’s shown.
Therefore, no correction needed. The diagram is already correctly labeled.
Final Answer:
The diagram is already correctly labeled with all six phase change terms:
- Sublimation (solid → gas)
- Melting (solid → liquid)
- Vaporization (liquid → gas)
- Condensation (gas → liquid)
- Freezing (liquid → solid)
- Deposition (gas → solid)
