Water is made up of H20 molecules. Ice and steam are also made up of the same. It is the difference in inter - molecular distance and temperature only that causes changes in the state.

How will you justify that icewater and water vapours are the three states of a substance and not substances?

This can be justified by looking at the exact chemical nature of each. Ice water, liquid water and steam (vapors) are ALLstill chemically the same, and exist as H2O, only in different states.


Will 10 pounds of steam push solid water in pipe?

No, steam and water have different properties. Steam is a gas, while water is a liquid. 10 pounds of steam will not push solid water in a pipe because they are different states of matter and do not interact in the same way.


How will we justify that ice water steam are the three state of a substance and not different substance?

The chemical analysis show that the chemical composition of the molecule is the same.

Does 1kg of water equals 1kg of steam?

Yes, 1kg of water equals 1kg of steam, as they are both forms of water in different states. The difference lies in their physical state, with water being in liquid form and steam being in gaseous form, but their mass is the same.


The 3 states of water are?

Ice, water and steam


Waters three different forms?

The three states of water (ie solid, liquid and gas) are called ice, water and water vapour (or steam).


How will you justify that ice water and steam are the three states of a substance and notdiferent substance?

Let us start with water. Take water in a petri-dish and heat it. It will turn into steam. Condense the steam by placing a cool surface over it. Hence, water and steam can be said to be the same. Then, freeze the water. It will turn into ice. Melt the ice by heating it to observe that it turns to water. For further scientific justification, one can check for the mass, density, volume, etc. of the water in the initial state and after any of the aforementioned processes.


What are the similar properties of steam and ice?

Steam and ice are both forms of water. They have the same chemical composition (H2O) but different physical states due to differences in temperature. Steam is gaseous water at high temperatures, while ice is solid water at low temperatures.
