Condensation
This process is called a phase change or a change of state. It involves the transformation of matter from one physical state (solid, liquid, gas) to another through the absorption or release of energy.
The state change from liquid to gas is called evaporation.
The physical state change from gas to liquid is called condensation. This occurs when a gas loses heat energy and transitions into a liquid state.
it is an extremely viscose liquid, so viscose one could call it a semi-solid liquid.

This is called a change in phase or a phase transition. It occurs when a substance transitions from one of the states of matter (solid, liquid, gas) to another due to changes in temperature or pressure.
When a substance is liquid and it changes to gas, we call that boiling.
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
yes
either potential or kinetic
State of matter is referring to a substances existence as a solid, liquid, or gas. So, a common example would be solid water (we call it ice) changing state to liquid water due to the addition of energy (possibly heat). If energy continues to enter the system the liquid water will change state again to become a gas (steam).
The change from a liquid to a gas is evaporation.
