Solid - made up of tightly packed particles, which gives it a solid shape.
Gas - made up of very loose particles, giving it more freedom to roam around as a gas
Liquid - fills into whatever it gets put in, basically takes the shape of the object its in
The suggestion is to prevent a puddle of the liquid present in the sample from forming or from it leaking on to the surface on which it is placed. For example, if precipitates of a solid are removed from water and then placed on filter paper to dry, the water will soak into the filter paper and then leak on to the counter on which it is placed. If this precipitate were placed in a watch glass or weighing paper, the water would only evaporate and would not contaminate the sample.
Cold blooded animal? it’s a bit vague sorry
-Pure magnesium is commonly made by separating it from seawater. This process is known as electrolysis. The liquid magnesium formed is cooled into convenient blocks of metal known as ingots. The chlorine gas is recycled to form hydrochloric acid for the production of more magnesium chloride.
