### Question on Standard States of Substances

In this question, you are asked to determine which of the following substances is **not** in its standard state at 25°C.

#### Question:
Which of the following substances is not in its standard state at 25°C?

#### Options:
- A) H₂(g)
- B) H₂O(l)
- C) Pb(l)
- D) Fe(s)

#### Explanation:
- **H₂(g):** Hydrogen gas (H₂) exists as a gas in its standard state at 25°C.
- **H₂O(l):** Water (H₂O) exists as a liquid in its standard state at 25°C.
- **Pb(l):** Lead (Pb) exists as a solid (Pb(s)) in its standard state at 25°C, not as a liquid.
- **Fe(s):** Iron (Fe) exists as a solid in its standard state at 25°C.

Therefore, the correct answer is **C) Pb(l)**, as lead is not in its standard state (solid) at 25°C when it is in liquid form.
