Why is a block of ice which when heated converts into liquid and then into gas considered as matter?

Because they are all matter. The three most common states of matter that we are familiar with here on earth take the form of sold (ice), liquid (water), and gas (vapor). T
he most common form of matter is a fourth kind called plasma. It is mostly found in stars and makes up roughly 99.9% of all matter in the universe, not including dark matter and dark energy.

What happens to most matter when heated?
When matter is heated the particles in the matter gain energy and begin to move or vibrate more depending on the state in which the matter is currently in. If the heat provided is significant enough they can change state too. Hope that was what you were looking for!
When matter changes from one state to another?
Condensation (gas to liquid or solid or liquid to solid), vaporization (liquid or solid to gas), sublimation (solid to gas), solidification (liquid to solid), or melting (solid to liquid).
As water is heated it expands and becomes?
Liquid becomes gas at higher temperature (above boiling point) Gas stays gas, there is no higher state of 'matter'.
What is the state of matter of a liquid?
The state of matter of a liquid is - well - a liquid. The four states of matter are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.
Matter can exist in different phases or states. What are three common states of matter?
A solution is a liquide si it can only exist in liqiude form( unless frozen or heated of cause)

What state of matter can be considered a fluid?
Liquid and gas
Wich state of matter expands the most when heated?
gas expand more than liquid and liquid expand more than solid.
What is the transfer of heat by the movement of heated matter?
Convection because some examples of this is through liquid and/or gas.
What does matter do when it is heated?
Matter expands when it is heated.
What happens to matter when heated?
When matter is heated it will expand
When matter changes from one state to another?
Condensation (gas to liquid or solid or liquid to solid), vaporization (liquid or solid to gas), sublimation (solid to gas), solidification (liquid to solid), or melting (solid to liquid).
What are some of states of matter that heat travel through?
When a object is heated,E.g ice,chocolate(which is a solid)changes into a liquid state. and if it heated again, it turns into gas. ANSWER by, Krishaa
Does matter contract or expand when heated?
Matter expands when it is heated.
What is the thermometric property used in a mercury thermometer?
Not just a property of liquid but of all matter. All matter expands when heated and contracts when cooled, in thermometers the liquid, usually an alcohol, expands when heated lengthening the little line.
What is the boiling point of matter?
When a substance is heated to its boiling point, the liquid begins to turn into a vapor. Thus, both phases of matter (liquid and vapor) will be present. Boiling point is the temperature at which atmospheric pressure equals the vapor pressure of the liquid. For this reason, the liquid is able to be released into the atmosphere as a gas.
Does matter expands or contrast when heated?
Matter usually expands when heated.
