Problem Description:
The task is to identify the correct state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas) for each image provided. The states of matter are defined as follows:
-
Solid: A substance with a definite shape and volume.
-
Liquid: A substance with a definite volume but not a definite shape; it takes the shape of its container.
-
Gas: A substance with neither a definite shape nor a definite volume; it expands to fill its container.
Solution:
#### Top Row:
1.
Image 1: Glass of water
-
Description: Water in a glass.

State of Matter: Liquid
-
Reason: Water has a definite volume but takes the shape of the glass (its container).
2.
Image 2: Building blocks (ABC blocks)
-
Description: Solid blocks stacked together.
-
State of Matter: Solid
-
Reason: The blocks have a definite shape and volume.
3.
Image 3: Steam coming out of a kettle
-
Description: Steam rising from a kettle.
-
State of Matter: Gas
-
Reason: Steam is water vapor, which is a gas. It has no definite shape or volume and expands to fill the space around it.
4.
Image 4: Wooden plank
-
Description: A piece of wood.
-
State of Matter: Solid
-
Reason: Wood has a definite shape and volume.
#### Bottom Row:
5.
Image 5: Cloud
-
Description: A cloud in the sky.
-
State of Matter: Gas
-
Reason: Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in air, which behave like a gas in terms of their lack of definite shape and volume.
6.
Image 6: Milk carton and glass of milk
-
Description: Milk in a carton and a glass.

-
Description: Frozen water in cube form.
-
State of Matter: Solid
-
