Minecraft:Block states

Block states (also known as block properties)Template:Note are extra pieces of data that further define a Minecraft:block, such as how it appears or behaves.

Template:IN, there are also aux values (also known as Metadata) to define a block. Aux values are in the format of binary flags, which basically match the block states one-to-one, and they are accessible in decimal number in Minecraft:commands. However, aux values are intended to be deprecated, and newly added blocks or block states no longer support aux values.

Template:IN, there are also fluid states, that further define a Minecraft:fluid as to how it behaves.
