Question

In which category of matter does a sponge exist?

Answer 1

Sponge:

• The sponge is compressible due to the presence of minute holes that trap air.
• When you squeeze, the air is ejected.
• The sponge is matter and solid since it has a fixed volume and does not change shape unless crushed.
• Because sponges have minute holes that are filled with air, they may be squeezed easily even though they are considered solids.

Hence, sponges are solids.
