liquid
The state of matter just before a substance melts is typically solid. As heat is applied, the solid absorbs energy and its particles begin to vibrate more rapidly until the intermolecular forces are overcome, leading to the melting phase transition.
No. Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object, and that does not change when the matter changes states. The matter will either contract or expand, depending on the current state and the state to be reached, but that does not change how much matter is in the object.
The thermal energy of a substance increases when it changes from a solid state to a liquid state, or from a liquid state to a gas state. This is because the molecules in the substance gain more kinetic energy and move more freely as the substance transitions between states of matter.
Anger is a psychological and emotional response, so it is considered non-matter. It is a feeling or state of mind that does not have physical substance.
Yes, steam is considered matter because it is a gaseous state of water, which is a substance that has mass and takes up space.
If a substance that exists in liquid state was not in liquid state then it was in its other states of matter namely solid, gaseous.
Solid
The temperature at which a substance that is in a liquid state of matter turns into the solid state of matter.
The state of matter just before a substance melts is typically solid. As heat is applied, the solid absorbs energy and its particles begin to vibrate more rapidly until the intermolecular forces are overcome, leading to the melting phase transition.
When a substance boils, the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together are overcome by the heat energy. This allows the molecules to move more freely and escape as a gas. The temperature at which this occurs is the boiling point of the substance.
The substance is a gas because its boiling point is lower than its melting point, indicating that it transitions from solid to gas without passing through the liquid phase.
There are three basic substance characteristics for matter and they are solid, liquid, and gas.

When a substance changes from one state of matter to another it is called changing its state. Temperature changes are usually the main cause of this change.
Density does not vary with the state of the matter in a substance.
