liquid
intermediate between solid and liquid
intermediate between liquid and gas
check answer remaining attempts : 3

Explanation:

Step1: Compare room - temp with melting point

Room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) is greater than melting point ($- 97.6^{\circ}C$), so it's not solid.

Step2: Compare room - temp with boiling point

Room temperature ($25^{\circ}C$) is less than boiling point ($64.7^{\circ}C$), so it's not gas.

Answer:

B. liquid
