1. What are the three states that water can exist in?

2. Give an example where you can find each state.
3. Matter can undergo a change in state through several processes. Name these processes.

1. The three states that water can exist in are solid, liquid, and gas (or vapor).

2. An example where water can exist as a solid is ice in a freezer. An example where water can exist as a liquid is water in a glass. An example where water can exist as a gas (or vapor) is steam rising from a boiling pot of water.
3. Matter can undergo a change in state through several processes, which include melting (solid to liquid), freezing (liquid to solid), evaporation (liquid to gas), condensation (gas to liquid), sublimation (solid to gas) and deposition (gas to solid).
