Grade 2 Science Worksheet on States of Matter from K5 Learning, teaching students to identify and draw examples of solids, liquids, and gases.

Let's solve the "States of Matter" worksheet step by step and explain each part.

🔹 Part 1: Write solid, liquid, and gas on the lines.

We are given three diagrams showing molecules in different arrangements:

1. First container (left):
- Molecules are tightly packed together in a fixed shape.
- They do not move around much.
→ This represents a solid.

2. Second container (middle):
- Molecules are close together but can move around.
- The shape is not fixed (they take the shape of the container).
→ This represents a liquid.

3. Third container (right):
- Molecules are far apart and spread out.
- They move freely and fill the container.
→ This represents a gas.

✔ Answer:
- First: solid
- Second: liquid
- Third: gas

🔹 Part 2: Label each picture solid, liquid, or gas.

Now we have three images with arrows pointing to them:

1. Stack of ice cubes (cubes):
- Ice is a solid form of water.
→ Label: solid

2. Cloud with raindrops falling:
- Clouds are made of tiny water droplets suspended in air — this is liquid (water droplets).
→ Label: liquid

3. Glass of water:
- Water in a glass is clearly liquid.
→ Label: liquid

Wait — both cloud and glass are liquids? Yes, but let’s clarify:
- The cloud is made of liquid water droplets, so it's liquid.
- The glass of water is also liquid.
- But what about gas?

Ah! There's no clear image of gas here. Let’s look again.

Actually, the cloud might be interpreted as gas if we think of water vapor, but the image shows raindrops, which are liquid. So the only gas example missing.

But wait — there’s an arrow pointing to the cloud, and another to the glass, and one to the ice cubes.

So:
- Ice cubes → solid
- Cloud → liquid (because of raindrops)
- Glass of water → liquid

But we need one gas example.

Wait — perhaps the cloud includes water vapor, which is gas, but the visual shows rain, so likely meant as liquid.

Alternatively, maybe the arrow pointing to the cloud is meant to represent gas (water vapor), but the raindrops suggest otherwise.

Let’s reevaluate.

In science, clouds are formed from water vapor (gas) condensing into tiny liquid droplets. But the image shows raindrops falling, so it emphasizes liquid.

But the worksheet says "label each picture", so based on the visual cues:

- Ice cubes → solid
- Cloud with rain → liquid (the drops are liquid)
- Glass of water → liquid

That gives two liquids and one solid — missing gas.

But there's only three pictures to label.

Wait — actually, look at the arrows:
There are three arrows, each pointing to a different object:
1. Arrow to ice cubes → solid
2. Arrow to cloud → gas? Or liquid?
3. Arrow to glass of water → liquid

But clouds are made of water vapor (gas) and liquid droplets.

However, in Grade 2 science, clouds are often taught as gas (water vapor) because they are invisible, but rain is liquid.

But since the cloud has rain, it’s more accurately liquid.

But that leaves no gas.

Wait — perhaps the cloud is meant to represent gas?

Let’s consider the intended answer based on typical grade-level understanding:

- Ice cubes = solid
- Cloud = gas (water vapor)
- Glass of water = liquid

Even though rain is shown, the cloud itself is often labeled as gas in basic science.

✔ Best interpretation:
- Ice cubes → solid
- Cloud → gas (water vapor)
- Glass of water → liquid

This matches the three states.

So:
- Solid: ice cubes
- Gas: cloud (water vapor)
- Liquid: glass of water

(Though the rain suggests liquid, the cloud is primarily gas in terms of state.)

So final labels:
- Ice cubes: solid
- Cloud: gas
- Glass of water: liquid

🔹 Part 3: Draw one example of each state of matter.

You are to draw one example for:
- Solid
- Liquid
- Gas

#### ✔ Examples:
- Solid: A rock, a book, an apple, a chair — anything with definite shape and volume.
- Liquid: Water, milk, juice — flows, takes shape of container.
- Gas: Air, steam, smoke — invisible, fills space.

Since you're drawing, here are simple ideas:
- Solid: Draw a block of wood or apple
- Liquid: Draw a cup of water
- Gas: Draw steam rising from a pot or air bubbles

---

✔ Final Answers:

#### Part 1: Write solid, liquid, gas on the lines:
- First container (packed molecules): solid
- Second (close but moving): liquid
- Third (spread out): gas

#### Part 2: Label each picture:
- Ice cubes → solid
- Cloud → gas (water vapor)
- Glass of water → liquid

> Note: Some may argue cloud is liquid due to rain, but in elementary science, clouds are often used to represent gas (water vapor). The rain is just a detail.

#### Part 3: Draw examples:
- Solid: e.g., a cube or an apple
- Liquid: e.g., a glass of water
- Gas: e.g., steam or air bubbles

📌 Summary:

| Diagram | State |
|--------|-------|
| Tightly packed molecules | Solid |
| Close but movable molecules | Liquid |
| Spread-out molecules | Gas |
| Ice cubes | Solid |
| Cloud (water vapor) | Gas |
| Glass of water | Liquid |

And draw one real-life example for each state.

✔ This completes the worksheet!
