Since particles are tightly packed together solid melts when energy increases. Example: ice

SInce particles are fairly close together liquid evaporates/boils when energy increases. Example: Boiling Water.

SInce particles have little attraction in gas. It condenses when energy decreases.

Liquid solidifies when energy decreases.

This takes place when a substance changes from a liquid to a gas at a temperature below its boiling point?

This phenomenon is called evaporation.


What are the phase changes processes taking place when a substance is in equilibrium between liquid and gas phase?

Evaporating and condensing


What is happening to the molecules of a substance when boiling takes place?

The molecules vibrate faster until so much thermal energy is generated that the substance changes from a liquid to a gas.


What happens to a substance during changes between a liquid and gas?

Vaporation takes place when the particles in a liquid gain enough energy to move independently forming a gas. if anyone has more info please add it. Thank you


What substance can be converted from liquid to solid and can not be converted back to liquid?

There is no such substance. Because only a transformation of physical state is taking place. Let me expand: Every substance has a specific temperature at which it changes its physical state. The temp. at which the substance turns into liquid is known as melting point and the temp. at which the liquid turns to solid is known as freezing point. Usually the melting point and the freezing points of a substance are the same. (But there are certain exeptions to this rule.) So if the temperature at which the substance turns into liquid is acheived i.e the melting point - then it definitely would become liquid again.


When sugar is heated for a short time a thick colorless liquid substance is formed What kind of change takes place explain?

a chemical change take the place because the substance went from a solid to a liquide and can no longer be turned back into a sugar cube.

Is air an example of pure substance?

No. Air is not pure substance. Air has all dust and dangerous gases with it. From place to place its composition changes.

What process of going from a gas to a liquid?

When something changes state from a liquid to a gas, evaporation or boiling has taken place. The difference might be that in evaporation, atoms or molecules of the substance "break free" of the liquid and become a gas. In boiling, there is enough heat present that the change is rapid.
