Changes in temperature and pressure can cause a change in the state of matter.
For an example lets consider the process of water boiling to steam. The boiling curve on a phase diagram is the line between the gas and the liquid plotted as function of temperature and pressure, thus to deal with this problem we will fix one quantity, the pressure. Lets assume the pressure is atmospheric, this will mean the water boils at the familiar 100 degrees Celsius. At room temperature (25 Degrees) the liquid doesn't boil but there is an equilibrium between the liquid and its vapour as any molecule with enough kinetic energy will escape (the temperature is just a measure of the average kinetic energy of all the molecules), but in essence the system is in equilibrium and the rate of vapour dissolution is the same as the evaporation.
Raising the temperature to 100 degrees Celsius and sustaining it there for the duration of the boiling will provide enough energy to allow all the molecules to escape (although obviously not all at once, they still have individual energies that may or may not be sufficient to allow them to escape). The heat capacity at the boiling temperature becomes infinite meaning all energy supplied breaks the binding of molecules from the water rater than raising the temperature, this is a key condition of a change of state.
Okay so to clarify a change of state occurs when the associated curve is met on the phase diagram by any pressure temperature combinations that rests on the curve. Sustain the temperature here will suffice to transform all the matter in one phase into another, like i.e. boiling away a pan of water, you must keep the gas on to boil the whole thing.
The key is to always bear in mind that temperature is just a macroscopic average of lots of individual microscopic components (atoms / molecules), each with an accociated energy.
No. Simply heating honey, while making it less viscus, does not change its state. It remains a liquid. Unless heating is prolonged enough to cause evaporation, the honey will remain a liquid, so no change of state occurs by simply heating.
What kind of energy is involved when the matter changes state?
Thermal (heat) energy must be added or removed in order to cause a change of state.
Add energy to change the particles in the liquid state on the window back into gas.
breaking or creating molecular bonds -- increasing or decreasing heat energy
True
It can.
Change the temperature or pressure or both, to change a substance from one state to another. (such as gas to liquid)
Yes, the material changes from a solid state to a liquid state.
one of them is the heat.
Decreasing the temperature a liquid become a solid.

removing energy from the molecules
It causes matter to change by turning the water into gas which is vaporization, turning water into ice.
As thermal energy increases or decreases, a substance will change state. This relates to temperature in that the higher the temperature of something, the greater its thermal energy.
