Can every material become a solid a liquid and a gas is there any material that won't change to one of these phases?

Theoretically, every material can be in any phase. However, the pressure and temperature requirements to make this happen are seriously impractical. Some ceramics, for example, are solid even at 1400 degrees Celsius.

What is the phases of Mercury?
Mercury is a liquid. It can be found in thermometers.
Liquid and gas are phases of what?
matter
What are the three phases of matter and their properties?
The 3 Phases of Matter are : -Liquid -Solid -Gas. * You can Google the phases or use Wikipedia.com for their properties (:
What are the phase change process is taking place when a substance is in equilibrium between liquid and gas phases?
(Explanation): If it is between the liquid and gas phases, we know that it is at the boiling point of water (liquid boils into gas). So, another way to say boiling is evaporating, and the opposite is condensation, because both are happening at melting point, like they talked about in the lesson.
How would you describe chemicals?
A chemical substance is a material with a specific chemical composition. Generally, chemical substances exist as a solid, liquid, gas, or plasma and may change between these phases of matter with changes in temperature or pressure. Chemical reactions convert one chemical substance into another.
What three phases can a piece of material be found in?
Solid, liquid, gas.
Consider a material in a solid form that is heated to a very high temperature what phases does the material go through?
When the material reaches its melting point, whatever that may be for the given material, it will go through fusion (will change from solid state to liquid state). Once the material reaches its boiling point it will go through evaporation (will change from liquid state to a gaseous state).
What is the phases change in which a substance changes from a gas to a liquid?
Condensation
Is water changing to water vapour a reversible or irreversible change?
It is reversible . Water vapour can condense and become liquid. Evaporation and condensation are phases in the water cycle
What causes the phases change when solid iron melts into liquid iron?
Heat energy does.
Is water an example of a physical change?
Yes, because it can change phases depending on the temperature. All three phases (solid, liquid, gas) are found on Earth in some abundance.
What the triple point on a phase diagram?
The triple point of a phase diagram is the location where the solid, liquid, and gas phases meet; it is the temperature and pressure at which a given substance can assume any of the 3 usual phases of matter.
When is water in equilibrium with water vapor?
When the concentration of the liquid (water) and gas (vapor) phases do not change.
What are the three phases of water How does water change from one phase to another?
The three phases of water are, liquid, solid and gas. Water changes from liquid to solid by Freezing. It changes from liquid to gas by Evaporation. It changes from solid to gas by Sublimation. It changes from solid to liquid by Melting. It changes from gas to liquid by Condensation.
How can you tell the boiling point of an element?
After the measurement of the temperature at the change of phase between liquid and gas phases.
Can a gas be returned to a liquid?
Yes. The three common phases of matter, solid, gas and liquid can be achieved by any material provided the right conditions, but different materials exist in different phases under the same conditions. The most common way that changes between these phases are achieved is by a change in temperature (although a change in pressure will also affect the state of matter). If a gas is cooled sufficiently, it will form a liquid. For example, if you set a glass of ice-water out, the outside of the glass will become wet. This wetness is water vapor which was in the air as a gas, but was cooled when it came into contact with the cold glass and condensed on the glass into a liquid. Even gases like Nitrogen, which makes up most of the air around us, can form a liquid, although it must be cooled to −196 °C.
What are the liquid phases?
solid liquid and gas
