Give 2 examples for each state of fresh water: a) solid b)liquid c) vapour?

I'll give you one example of each.

solid -- ice cube
liquid -- glass of water
vapour -- steam

Now it's your turn to find one more example of each.

My teacher wants different examples than that.. I don't know what other examples to write

Ask your teacher why my answers are not acceptable.

thank you this helped a lot

Certainly! Let's explore the three states of fresh water: solid, liquid, and vapor.

a) Solid state:
1) Ice cubes: Freezing water below its melting point (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit) causes it to solidify into ice. You can obtain ice cubes by pouring water into an ice tray and placing it in a freezer. As the water reaches freezing temperature, the water molecules slow down and organize themselves into a solid structure, resulting in ice cubes.

2) Snow: In colder regions, precipitation occurs as snow when the temperature is below freezing. Snowflakes form when water vapor condenses directly into ice crystals in the atmosphere. These crystals combine and fall to the ground as delicate, unique snowflakes. Catching snowflakes on a cold winter day is one way to experience solid fresh water.

b) Liquid state:
1) Drinking water: Most commonly, fresh water exists in the liquid state, known as drinking water. This can be obtained from various sources such as rivers, lakes, and groundwater. Water is collected and treated to meet safety standards, ensuring that it is suitable for drinking and other purposes.

2) Puddles: After rainfall or other water-related events, you may encounter puddles of water on the ground. These are formed when liquid water collects in depressions or hollowed areas. Puddles can be a temporary state of fresh water before it evaporates or is absorbed into the ground.

c) Vapor (gaseous state):
1) Steam: When liquid water is exposed to high temperatures, it can change into vapor. Steam is the gaseous state of water. This can be seen when boiling water on a stove or when water evaporates from hot surfaces. Steam is essentially water molecules in an invisible gaseous form.

2) Humidity: In the environment, the gaseous form of water, also known as water vapor or humidity, is present. It is the result of evaporation from various sources such as oceans, lakes, or even from plants through a process called transpiration. Humidity can be felt during muggy or rainy weather, where the air feels moist.

Remember that these examples cover the general concept, but the specific methods to create or encounter each state may vary.
