This is a process called sublimation, where either the temperature is increased or the pressure is reduced (maybe even both) to cause the molecules in the solid to completely overcome the attractive forces keeping them together.

What is it called when a gas turns into solid without becoming a liquid first?
when solid turns in gas without passing in liquid,or gas turns in solid without passing in liquid form,the process is called sublimation. Sublimation
Does gas come before solid or after solid?
Both! The physical state of a substance can go straight from gas to solid, or can heat from solid to liquid and then to gas. The process a solid undertakes when it goes straight to its gas state from a solid state without first turning liquid is called sublimation.

What happens when solid turns into gas?
The gas can't generally turn straight into a solid, it has to change into a liquid and then a solid. When a gas turns into a liquid, the particles go closer together into groups and condensate. When the liquid turns into a solid, the particles all compress into a small space thus making a solid object.-----------------------------------------------------------------------But the phenomenon of change from a gas to a solid is also very known and is called deposition.
Can you name a solid that turns straight to a gas from a solid?
The most common example of a sublimable solid is Iodine.
What do you call when a solid turns straight into a gas?
A solid that turns directly into a gas is dry ice. Sublimation
What happens as a solid turns into a gas?

What is it called when water turns straight form solid to gas?
Sublimation is a change of a substance from solid to gas without becoming liquid.
What is it called when something turns into a gas at room temperature?
Evaporation (or sublimation IF it goes straight from solid to gas).
What happens when you heat iodine?
It turns straight into a gas. Hope this helps :-)
