A phase change is when matter changes into another form but keeps its properties.
For example, ice melting into water is an example of the phase change melting.
The main types of phase changes are melting, vaporization, freezing and condensation.
- Melting is when a solid turns into a liquid.
- Freezing is when a liquid turns into a solid.
- Vaporization is when a liquid turns into a gas. Boiling is a form of vaporization when the change takes place throughout the liquid. Evaporation is a form of vaporization in which the phase change takes place only at the top of the liquid.
- Condensation is when a gas turns into a liquid.
- There is also sublimation, which is when a solid turns directly into a gas.
- Deposition is when a gas turns directly into a solid.

How do you get a change of phase?
Change of phase is caused 99% of the time by a change in temperature or pressure.
What is it called to change states of matter?
Phase change. Liquid phase to gaseous phase (evaporation) Liquid phase to solid phase (solidification, freezing) Solid phase to gaseous phase (sublimation9 Etc...
Is a phase change an example of a physical or chemical or nuclear or a covalent change?
A phase change is an example of a physical change, not a chemical, nuclear, or covalent change. During a phase change, the substance undergoes a change in state (solid, liquid, gas) without any change in its chemical composition.
What phase change causes water to evaporate?
This phase change is called evaporation.
What is a phase change example of?
When ice melts and becomes water, that is a phase change. Same when water boils and becomes steam (a gas) that is also a phase change.
When a solid is heated it will usually change to this phase?
When a solid is heated, it will usually change to the liquid phase. This process is known as melting.
What is a change of substance from one state of matter to another called?
Phase change. Liquid phase to gaseous phase (evaporation) Liquid phase to solid phase (solidification, freezing) Solid phase to gaseous phase (sublimation9 Etc...
Why does phase change occur in materials?
Changing the temperature or pressure of a material we can change the phase.
Is a Chang in a phase a physical change or chemical Chang?
A change in phase is a physical process.
How does the energy of a system change during phase change?
energy is either absorbed or released during a phase change
How does the the energy of a system change during a phase change?
