Problem Overview:
The task involves identifying and categorizing different materials based on their states of matter (liquid, solid, gas) and then coloring the squares accordingly. Additionally, you need to draw a path for a mouse to find cheese by following yellow-colored squares.
Step-by-Step Solution:
####
Part 1: Identifying States of Matter
We are given a table with various images representing different materials. The goal is to determine whether each material is a
liquid,
solid, or
gas and color the corresponding squares as follows:
-
Red: Liquid
-
Green: Solid
-
Yellow: Gas
Let’s analyze each image:
1.
Image 1: A droplet of water.
-
State: Liquid
-
Color: Red
2.
Image 2: Ice cubes.
-
State: Solid (frozen water)
-
Color: Green
3.
Image 3: Steam rising from boiling water.
-
State: Gas
-
Color: Yellow
4.
Image 4: A pencil.
-
State: Solid
-
Color: Green
5.
Image 5: A glass of milk.
-
State: Liquid
-
Color: Red
6.
Image 6: A balloon filled with helium.
-
State: Gas
-
Color: Yellow
7.
Image 7: A rock.
-
State: Solid
-
Color: Green
8.
Image 8: A puddle of water.
-
State: Liquid
-
Color: Red
9.
Image 9: A cloud in the sky.
-
State: Gas (water vapor)
-
Color: Yellow
10.
Image 10: A bar of chocolate.
-
State: Solid
-
Color: Green

Part 2: Drawing the Path
After coloring the squares, we need to draw a path for the mouse to reach the cheese. The path should follow only the
yellow-colored squares (representing gases).
From the analysis above:
- Yellow squares correspond to Images 3, 6, and 9.
Assuming the layout of the squares matches the order of the images, the path would be:
1. Start at Image 3 (Steam).
2. Move to Image 6 (Helium-filled balloon).
3. Move to Image 9 (Cloud).
Final Answer:
1.
Coloring the Squares:
- Red: Images 1, 5, 8
- Green: Images 2, 4, 7, 10
- Yellow: Images 3, 6, 9
2.
Drawing the Path:
- Follow the yellow squares (Images 3, 6, 9) to form the path.
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{\text{Red: 1, 5, 8; Green: 2, 4, 7, 10; Yellow: 3, 6, 9}}
\]
