Is it the same when matter changes from gas to solid as when something sublimates?

They are not the same thing.
When something changes directly from solid to gas, it is said to sublimate.
When matter changes from gas to solid it is called deposition, or sometimes called desublimation.

Is sublimation the way a balloon decreases in volume when the temperature is decreased?
No. Sublimation is when a solid changes it's state to a gas or when a gas changes it's state to a solid. Example : Dry ice (solid CO2) sublimates to gaseous CO2.
When matter changes from a solid to a liquid it What is?
The process in which a solid changes to a liquid is called melting.
When a ice cubemelt it state of matter changes from a?
solid to a liquid
What are the changes of phase in matter?
Solid, liquid, or gas.
What happens when matter changes from liquid to solid?
As matter changes from solid to liquid (in other words when solid matter melts) the temperature remains constant. After all the solid has melted, the temperature of the matter may begin to rise again if the environment is warmer than the melting point of the solid.
What happens when a substance changes from one state of matter to another?
It undergoes a phase change, such as when a solid (like frozen CO2) sublimates directly to a gas, or when water freezes to ice.
A change in state of matter is a change in what?
When something changes between solid, liquid, gas, or plasma
Is sublimation the way a balloon decreases in volume when the temperature is decreased?
No. Sublimation is when a solid changes it's state to a gas or when a gas changes it's state to a solid. Example : Dry ice (solid CO2) sublimates to gaseous CO2.
When matter changes from a solid to a liquid it What is?
The process in which a solid changes to a liquid is called melting.
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.
How does matter changes its state?
the matter can change into liquid, solid and gas.
What are the phase changes of matter?
The melting phase changes are Solid~Liquid~Gas and the freezing phase changes are Gas~Liquid~Solid
What are two changes in matter?
Liquid to gas, solid to liquid, and liquid to solid
When a ice cubemelt it state of matter changes from a?
solid to a liquid
Three changes of matter?
The three changes of matters are solid, liquid, and gas
Changes in state of matter are?
Gas, liquid,or solid
What are the 3 changes in matter?
solid to liquid to gas
