It is called sublimation when you turn a solid into a gas. When you turn a gas into a solid it is called deposition.

Which is a better conductor of heat solid or gas?
solid becaus there are more molecules so they spread the heat energy around quicker
What is the effect of heat on solid liquid and gas?
Heat cause excitation of electrons and molecular vibration. More heat is the more molecular vibration and at the certain point when the energy in molecular vibration exceed the bonding energy, the molecules or atom then set free from the solid bonding and move freely. In absent of atmospheric pressure, the solid would become gas but with the pressure or presence of other gases, the matter may be mobile yet held together in liquid state. The liquid, with more heat, the energy from molecular excitation would set such liquid to become gas.
Is it true that the flow that transfers heat within a fluid is called a convection current?
In a convection current, heat flows with the heated molecules as they move around in the liquid or gas. In a solid, the heat transfers via condition
Adding or removing what makes substances change from one state to another?
A change of state is when a substance shifts from solid, liquid or gas to another state. This happens when heat is removed or added.
How does heat travel by conduction through liquid and gas?
liquid will make gas only if it is hot, because the heat will make it steam up making it a gas.
Do you need to add or subtract heat make a solid into gas?
Add heat.
What do you call the change in state of matter from a liquid to a gas?
Condensation
Is heat taken away or added in sublimation?
Sublimation is an endothermic physical change (heat is needed).
The equation gas plus cold equals?
First of all you cannot add cold. You can remove heat. In the first instance gas minus heat is cold gas. Then, depending on the substance, you can have mainly liquid or solid.
What happens when heat is added to a substance?
well this isn't a specific question you see there is 2 different kind of substances ; For example:... solid : when heat is added to a solid it becomes a liquid liquid: when heat is added to a liquid it becomes a gas! for example water > if you add heat it will hot add or take away chemicals!
What do you call liquids and gases?
For items that are solid we call them...solid, liquid....we call liquid and gas...gas! Hope that helps, David
What do you call the Transformation of solid to gas?
The transformation from solid to gas is called sublimation.
What are the 3 Types of Changes in Matter?
there are 6 changes of matter melting-when you add heat to an object it will turn into a liquid freezing-when you take away heat from a liquid it will turn into a solid vaporization-when you add heat to a liquid it turns into a gas condensation-when heat is removed from a gas it turns into a liquid sublimation-when a solid turns into a gas, skipping the liquid state deposition-when a gas turns in a solid, skipping the liquid state the states of matter are solid, liquid and gas. there 2 new once that are called plasma's and bose-einstian condensate
What is solid to a gas and is heat added or removed?
Of course heat is added because you are turning solid which is like ice to gas which is water vapour !!
What do you add or subtracting to change a state of matter?
You add or subtract heat. An example is ice turns to water(solid to liquid) then water to stem are water vapor(liquid to gas)
Is there a release or absorption at heat in phase change?
It depends on the phase change. When going from solid to liquid (melting), liquid to gas (boiling), or solid to gas (sublimation) heat is absorbed. When going from gas to liquid (condensation), liquid to solid (freezing), and gas to solid (deposition) heat is released.
How do you reverse a solid?
Heat the solid until it becomes a liquid or a gas.
