Solution

  • The three primary states of matter are the solid, liquid, and gaseous states.
  • These three forms of matter can be converted from one state of matter to another state by changing certain environmental factors (increasing or decreasing pressure and temperature, for instance).
  • For example, Ice can be converted from a solid into liquid water by increasing the temperature.
  • Water is the only substance where all three states can be readily observed in everyday life: solid water as ice, liquid water in a water fountain, and gaseous water as steam.
