States of matter are generally described as solid, liquid and gas (although there are more to think about when you really get into science). As such a change in matter is seen to be a change in state; from solid to liquid (melting), from liquid to gas (boiling), from solid to gas (sublimation), from gas to liquid (condensation) and liquid to solid (freezing).

Interestingly each chemical has a unique melting/freezing point and boiling/condensation point. We can use those temperatures to help us identify unknown substances.

How does changes occur in the different changes of matter?

Changes in the states of matter occur through processes like melting, freezing, condensation, vaporization, and sublimation. These changes involve the rearrangement of particles at the molecular level due to changes in temperature or pressure. During these transitions, energy is either absorbed or released.

Which types of changes to matter do you think are the most dangerous?

Chemical changes in matter have the most potential danger and damage. A chemical change is a change in which one kind of matter is changed into a different type of matter. Some examples of chemical changes: the rusting of your car, setting your shoe on fire, digesting food, and the burning of magnesium metal in oxygen to form magnesium oxide.
