Problem Description:
The task involves categorizing various objects into three states of matter:
Solid,
Liquid, and
Gas. The image provides a table with three columns labeled "Solid," "Liquid," and "Gas," along with a set of images at the bottom that need to be placed in the appropriate column.
Solution Approach:
1.
Understand the States of Matter:
-
Solid: A state of matter with a definite shape and volume. Examples include ice, rocks, and metals.
-
Liquid: A state of matter with a definite volume but no definite shape. It takes the shape of its container. Examples include water, milk, and oil.
-
Gas: A state of matter with neither a definite shape nor a definite volume. It expands to fill its container. Examples include air, steam, and helium.
2.
Analyze Each Image:
- Carefully examine each image and determine its state of matter based on the definitions above.
3.
Categorize the Images:
- Place each image in the correct column (Solid, Liquid, or Gas).
Step-by-Step Analysis of Each Image:
#### Images Provided:
1.
Coffee cup: Solid (the cup itself is solid).
2.
Raindrops: Liquid (rain is liquid water).
3.
Apple: Solid (an apple has a definite shape and volume).
4.
Clouds: Gas (clouds are made of water vapor, which is a gas).
5.
Cupcake: Solid (a cupcake has a definite shape and volume).
6.
Soap bar: Solid (soap has a definite shape and volume).
7.
Shoe: Solid (a shoe has a definite shape and volume).
8.
Snowflake: Solid (snow is frozen water, which is solid).
9.
Water droplet: Liquid (a droplet of water is liquid).
10.
Ice cube: Solid (ice is frozen water, which is solid).
11.
Toy car: Solid (a toy car has a definite shape and volume).
12.
Milk carton: Solid (the carton itself is solid).
13.
Panda: Solid (a panda is a living organism with a definite shape and volume).
14.
Glass of water: Liquid (the water inside the glass is liquid).
15.
Airplane: Solid (an airplane has a definite shape and volume).
#### Categorization:
-
Solid: Coffee cup, Apple, Cupcake, Soap bar, Shoe, Snowflake, Toy car, Ice cube, Milk carton, Panda, Airplane.
-
Liquid: Raindrops, Water droplet, Glass of water.
-
Gas: Clouds.
Final Answer:
Place the images in the table as follows:
|
Solid |
Liquid |
Gas |
|-----------|------------|---------|
| Coffee cup<br>Apple<br>Cupcake<br>Soap bar<br>Shoe<br>Snowflake<br>Toy car<br>Ice cube<br>Milk carton<br>Panda<br>Airplane | Raindrops<br>Water droplet<br>Glass of water | Clouds |
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|}
\hline
\text{Solid} & \text{Liquid} & \text{Gas} \\
\hline
\text{Coffee cup, Apple, Cupcake, Soap bar, Shoe, Snowflake, Toy car, Ice cube, Milk carton, Panda, Airplane} & \text{Raindrops, Water droplet, Glass of water} & \text{Clouds} \\
\hline
\end{array}
}
\]
