What happens to liquid water when it is heated to 100 degrees Celsius?

It evaporates and turns into water vapor (a gas).

Give one example of a solid, one liquid, and one gas.

Solid: ice; Liquid: juice; Gas: air (accept reasonable alternatives)

Condensation is when water vapor cools and turns into liquid droplets.

Both take the shape of their container; gases expand to fill all available space while liquids have a fixed volume.

The water evaporated: it turned into water vapor and went into the air.
