It is called melting when a solid turns into a liquid
When a solid turns to a liquid, such as ice turning to water, it is commonly called melting. The solidification of a liquid to a solid is called freezing.
The change in state would be known as melting. Just for your information: Solid to Liquid = Melting Liquid to Gaseous = Boiling Solid to Gaseous = Sublimation Gaseous to Liquid = Condensation Liquid to Solid = Freezing Gaseous to Solid = Deposition
When steam or a vapor changes state to a liquid, it "condenses". When a liquid changes it's state to a solid, it freezes. It requires much more energy to change the state of a vaport to a liquid than it does to change the state of a liquid to a solid
Freeze the liquid water until it turns to solid ice.
If your're asking about the change of state, the answer would be Freezing. If you're asking about the state of ice, it would be solid.
gas -> liquid = condensation liquid -> solid = solidification (freezing) solid -> gas = sublimation gas -> solid = deposition solid -> liquid = melting liquid -> solid = vaporization
Sublimation is a change of state when a solid turns into a gas without going in the process of changing into a liquid.
Sublimation - the process by which a substance goes directly from the solid to the gaseous state without passing through the liquid state.
The change of phase or state is when a liquid, gas, or solid change its form! liquid can turn into a solid (ice) or a gas (steam). Gas can turn into a liquid (water).But there are some exceptions to this rule , such as dry ice. Dry ice turns directly into a gas.
Evaporation is the process where a liquid turns into a gas, not a solid. The change from a liquid to a solid is called solidification or freezing, where the particles of a liquid come together to form a solid structure as the temperature decreases.
