Why do you use liquids not solids or gases in thermometers?
because liquids can give us the right temperature but solids and gases
Funnel used to separate solids from liquids?
Yes, a funnel may be used to separate solids from liquids; many types of funnels exist. See some images at the link below.
How do you identify gases and solids and liquids?
You can identify solids liquids and gases by seeing how they actually look like for e.g.: I am sure you must like chocolate, well chocolate is actually a solid as it is all in one shape. You cant break it very easily so you have to put a bit of force onto it. You must obviously love let's say coke, well coke is actually a liquid as it can flow and you cant catch it in your hands and hold it the same way you do to chocolate or can you? No! A gas is when you cant see or feel it or hold. So basically the 3 states of matter: solids liquid and gases are based on their properties which are further divided into physical properties and chemical properties. Hope this helps!
How does kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?
The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.
What are a characteristic of gas?
1) they are colorless 2) they are rare 3) they are nonreactive 4) the molecules/atoms are very far apart 5) the molecules/atoms are much smaller compared to solids and liquids!

How can gas turn into a solid or liquid?
Gases become liquids through condensaton- heat leaves the gas Gases become solids through deposition For more see: http://www.science.uwaterloo.ca/~cchieh/cact/c123/phases.html

What properties do gases have that liquids dont?
In a solid. There are a WHOLE lot of particles. They are all tightly connected and the only way to separate them is by using a lot of force. In a liquid, the particles are connected but can move around freely. They still have to connect to the other particles, but the bond is weaker and very easily broken. In a gas, the particles are NOT connected and can move around freely. They do not have to be connected, unlike solids and liquids; and they can move, unlike solids.
Is there a difference between fluids and liquids?
Fluids refer to both liquids and gases; liquids are just liquids. That is, Fluids = Liquid OR Gas Liquid = Liquid We can see that liquids are actually a fluid.
What instrument use in density?
A hydrometer is an instrument that measures the density of liquids. Auto batteries could be checked to see the strength of the acid in each cell before sealed batteries were made. I don't know of an instrument for solids or gases.
What are some examples of solids that you see everyday for kids?
Crayons, books, pens, pencils, paper.

Are all solids the same?
No, not all solids are the same. For example. each solid has a different temperature in which it melts. Heat, water, and coldness are factors in solids.
Which factor is responsible for water being a liquid rather than gas at room temperature?
The different states (which are solids, liquids and gases) are determined by the amount of energy present in the system. Energy is found in several forms, but kinetic energy is the form that the state of matter takes on, especially when it is changed from one state of matter to another. The various states of matter are always in constant motion. In liquids and gases, the motion known as the Brownian motion occurs. This is where particles move randomly while suspended. Even in solids, the particles continue to move, but is a vibration around a fixed point, and is not as free as the liquids and gases. Hope that helped!! <(^_^)>
