A Solid → #000000
A Liquid → #008000
A Gas → #ff0000
A Unknown phase → #696969

A Solid (predicted) → #000000

Deprecated or unknown meaning

Do not use these color names. In general, it is advised to use a more specific, meaningful color name. These color names are not used in main space, and most are redirected to another color.
