There are 2 types of fluids. Gas and Liquid.
The process in which a liquid changes into a solid is called freezing. The particles loses kinetic energy, therefore the forces of attraction at the nucleus of the particles pull the particles more closely together. When a liquid changes completely into a solid, the particles will be very closely packed, and cannot move freely at all. An example would be the freezing of water into ice.
The process in which a gas in changed to a solid is called desublimation, or deposition. Most elements have 3 states of matter (solid, liquid, gas). With that said, a gas usually condenses (loses kinetic energy, the particles becomes more closely packed) to become a liquid, before undergoing the freezing process to change into a solid. However, some elements can skip the liquid phase and directly become a solid. This is affected by the pressure exerted on the gas. Under high pressure, water vapour for example can desublime into ice without first becoming water. This is how snow is formed.

Which term is defined as the process by which a substance changes state from solid to liquid-?
melting
What does the change in state involve?
A change of state is a change in the object from a solid to a liquid. Other changes of state are a solid to a gas or from a liquid to a solid.
When a ice cubemelt it state of matter changes from a?
solid to a liquid
What kind of changes in substances are always physical changes?
The kinds of changes in substances that are always physical changes are changes in the state. This is the change from solid, to liquid and then to gas and the reverse.
What happens when you turn solid into liquid into a gass?
These are changes in physical state, which are physical changes.
How are the state changes of water similar to the state changes in most other substances?
These changes of state are: solid to liquid, liquid to gas, gas to liquid, liquid to solid, solid to gas, gas to solid. The majority of substances have these state of matter changes.
How are the state changes of similar to the states changes in most other substances?
These changes of state are: solid to liquid, liquid to gas, gas to liquid, liquid to solid, solid to gas, gas to solid. The majority of substances have these state of matter changes.
What is the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid state to a liquid state?
The freezing point is when a liquid changes into a solid.
What two conditions can change the state of matter?
1) melting-solid state changes into liquid state and 2)freezing-liquid state changes into solid state
How are the states changes of water similar to the state changes in most other substances?
These changes of state are: solid to liquid, liquid to gas, gas to liquid, liquid to solid, solid to gas, gas to solid. The majority of substances have these state of matter changes.
What is the changes of state of solid to solid?
This phasechange is called as melting.
What changes the state between a solid and a liquid?
more energy, for the most part heat, changes the state between solid and liquid.
Which term is defined as the process by which a substance changes state from solid to liquid-?
melting
When does A liquid changes to a solid state at its?
A liquid will change to a solid when it freezes.
What does the change in state involve?
A change of state is a change in the object from a solid to a liquid. Other changes of state are a solid to a gas or from a liquid to a solid.
What are five changes of state?
The 5 changes of state are melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), condensation (gas to liquid), freezing(liquid to solid), and sublimation (solid to gas or gas to solid)
Are state changes physical or chemical changes?
A change of state: Solid <-> Liquid <-> Gas A change of state is a physical change.
