Answer:

Missouri (1821)

Arkansas (1836)

Florida (1845)

Texas (1845)

Step-by-step explanation:

A slave state was a U.S. state in which the practice of slavery was legal. In 1776 slavery was legal in every colony, but during and after the Revolutionary War it became a divisive issue.

From 1812 to 1850 the slave and free states were admitted in pairs in order to maintain a balance between the votes in the Senate.

I hope this answer helps you.
