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.

∙ 13y agoonly some gases turn to solid without turning to a liquid
the rest first turn to liquid then to solid
and other you can only turn them to liquid due to the level of technology in this world. such as nitrogen

∙ 13y agono it can not be converted into into solid

∙ 13y agoDepends what gas it is, carbon dioxide turns directly into dry ice. I'm not sure if water vapor can turn directly into ice, sorry

What is called when you turn a gas into a solid and a solid into a gas?
Turning a solid to a gas is sublimation. You cannot go directly from a gas to a solid. First you have to condense the gas and then freeze it. Sure you can - at the triple point
During the process of sublimation what happens?
A solid (like dry ice- solid carbon dioxide) turns directly to a gas, without being a liquid.
At which temperature does a solid become a gas?
The answer depends on the solid. Most solids do not turn to gas directly to gas, but melt, and then boil at a different temperature. Water does this; ice melts at 0o, and boils at 100o. Some materials go directly from solid to gas, a process called sublimation, two examples being carbon dioxide and iodine. But they do this at very different temperatures.
Can carbon dioxide change from a solid directly into a gas?
Yes, this is why solid carbon dioxide is often called "dry ice." Instead of melting, it sublimes directly from a solid into a gas.
How does solid change directly to a gas?
A solid changes directly into a gas in the process called sublimation. Refer to the related link for more information.
What is a gas changing into a solid or solid into a gas?
Changing directly from a gas to a solid is called deposition.Changing directly from a solid to a gas is called sublimation.

What change takes place when a solid changes directly to a solid?
Sublimitatition IS WHEN A SOLID TURNS DIRECTLY INTO A GAS! DEPOSITION IS WHEN A GAS TURNS DIRECTLY INTO A SOLID!
What is it when a solid changes directly to a gas?
When a gas changes directly to a solid it is called deposition.
What is it called when a gas changes directly to a solid?
When a gas changes directly to a solid it is called deposition.
What do you call it when a gas directly changes to a solid?
When a gas changes directly to a solid it is known as deposition.
What is process of gas to solid?
Sublimation is the process in which solid changes directly to gas and gas changes directly to solid without any liquid phase
What is the phase in which a substance changes from a gas directly to a solid?
A phase change directly from a gas to a solid is called deposition.
What is the phase change in which a substance changes directly from a gas to a solid?
A phase change directly from a gas to a solid is called deposition.
What is the name of the transition process directly from gas to solid?
Sublimation is the transition directly from solid to gas, without the intermediary liquid stage. The reverse (the transition directly from gas to solid) is called deposition or desublimation.
What is a phase change in which a substance changes directly from a solid to gas?
A phase change directly from a gas to a solid is called deposition.
What is a phase change in which a substance changes directly from a solid to a gas?
