Closer bonding of particles.
The energy required to melt a substance. (Apex)
A solid has the most energy, it is the most tightly packed, then a liquid as the particles have more space, then a gas as the particles are free and there are less of them. Hope this helps. if you go to google images, you will also know what I mean
When we melt a solid, it will become a liquid. This is a physical change (as opposed to a chemical one), and meltingis something we observe when ice changes to liquid water.When a solid turns into a liquid form it is called melting.
If you use enough heat, anything that won't either sublime, which is to go directly from solid to gas (dry ice, wood, some inks), or ignite, which is to catch fire, will change from a solid to a liquid.
The rank from slowest to fastest particle speed is: solid, liquid, gas. In solids, particles are tightly packed and have the least amount of kinetic energy. In liquids, particles have more freedom to move around but are still somewhat constrained. In gases, particles have the most kinetic energy and move more freely and quickly.
Vaporization means that the particles eg water molecules must have enough energy to break the liquid particle to particle bonds and form a gas particle. This happens at any temperature but happens for all molecules at the boiling point of the liquid. Some substances do not spontaneously go through a liquid phase but actually form a gas from the solid phase. Solid directly to gas is called sublimation but it is, in effect, a type of vaporization.

it doesnt go anywhere. The solid breaks up in really small pieces, and mixes with the liquid.

The process of going from a solid to a liquid is called melting. When heat is applied to a solid, such as ice, it turns into a liquid form, which is water.
Freeze.
gas to liquid = condensation liquid to solid = freezing the gas must go through a liquid state, Even if for a millisecond.
Go read a book
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.
Custard is normaly a liquid, but the water abosorbes into a solid.
Any amount of time
