Yes. Ice can melt from a solid to a liquid and then the water (liquid) evaporates into a gas and goes up into the air.

Can water only exist as a liquid?
no, it can be ice and snow and it can be evaporated
When does phase changes occur?
When a solid melts or changes to a liquid. When a liquid boils or changes to a gas. or the reverse when a gas condenses to a liquid or a liquid freezes to a solid. Also it is possible for a solid to go directly to a gas without passing through the liquid stage. This is called sublimation and can occur with sulfur when heated, or ice in the winter when the sun shines on it..
Can gas go directly to a solid?
Yes. Gas can go directly to a solid by a process called deposition, also known as desublimation. An example is sub-freezing air, where water vapor turns into ice without first becoming liquid.
What is the opposite of solidify?
When something solidifies, it turns from a gas or a liquid to a solid. The opposite of something turning from a liquid or gas to a solid would be something turning from a solid to a liquid or gas. Now, there's a word for something turning from a solid to a gas, but it's not in common use; and very few things go straight from solid to gas (dry ice is one example). So the most appropriate answer would be the word for something turning from solid to liquid, which is "liquify".
List six physical changes that matter can go through?
When a solid changes to liquid it's called melting. When a solid changes to gas it's called sublimation. When a liquid changes to a solid it's called freezing. When a liquid is changed to a gas it's called evaporation. When a gas changes to a solid it's called deposition. When a gas changes to a liquid it's called condensation.
Can sublimation change liquid into a gas?
Sublimation is when a solid turns into a gas. E.g Dry ice is a solid but slowly turns into a gas, it doesn't go into a liquid. Evaporation is liquid to gas.
Can something in a solid state go into a gas state without being in a liquid state?
Dry ice changes from a solid to a gas state without being a liquid.
Can water only exist as a liquid?
no, it can be ice and snow and it can be evaporated
How liquid sublimates?
liquids don't sublimate, the definition of sublimation is a solid that changes directly into a gas with no liquid phase. an example of this is dry ice, which go's straight from solid phase to gas phase.
Melting of ice is an example of?
A phase change.A phase change is a physical change that occurs when an object changes from one state to another i.e. liquid to gas, gas to liquid, liquid to solid, solid to liquid. A substance need not go through the liquid phase to change from a solid to a gas, as in sublimation of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide).
If we heat a solid it ultimately changes into a liquid?
Not always. Some go straight from solid to gas eg dry ice ... called 'sublimation'.
When does phase changes occur?
When a solid melts or changes to a liquid. When a liquid boils or changes to a gas. or the reverse when a gas condenses to a liquid or a liquid freezes to a solid. Also it is possible for a solid to go directly to a gas without passing through the liquid stage. This is called sublimation and can occur with sulfur when heated, or ice in the winter when the sun shines on it..
How does ice go to dry ice?
It doesn't. Dry ice is solid carbon dioxide, which has a very small liquid range and appears to go straight from solid to gas. It doesn't. Dry ice is made with frozen carbon dioxide and regular ice from H2O (water).
What is the change of a gas to a solid?
gas to liquid = condensation liquid to solid = freezing the gas must go through a liquid state, Even if for a millisecond.
What is the Sublimination?
Sublimation is when a solid turns into a gas... when water turns into ice it solidifies... when ice turns into water it melts... when ice turns into steam it is sublimation.
Can gas go directly to a solid?
Yes. Gas can go directly to a solid by a process called deposition, also known as desublimation. An example is sub-freezing air, where water vapor turns into ice without first becoming liquid.
What are the changes in state of matter?
The states of matter are solid, liquid and gas. A solid melts to become liquid and a liquid evaporates to become gas. Sublimation is the direct change from solid to gas.
