Answer
(a) Volume
Reason — Solid, liquid and gas are the states of matter, while volume is a property of matter.
(b) Stone
Reason — Water, fruit juice, air and milk are fluids and can flow, while stone is a solid and cannot flow.
(c) Wood
Reason — Iron, aluminium and gold are metals, whereas wood is a non-metal.
(d) Melting point
Reason — Freezing, condensation and evaporation are processes of state change, while melting point is a temperature, not a process.
