During melting, a substance transitions from a solid to a liquid state as energy is added to break intermolecular bonds. Evaporation occurs when a liquid turns into a gas by gaining enough energy to overcome intermolecular forces. Solidification is the process where a liquid transforms into a solid by losing energy, causing particles to come together and form a crystalline structure.
sublimation Sometimes solids can change directly into a gas without becoming a liquid first. The most common substance that goes directly from solid to gas is Carbon Dioxide. It goes directly from solid (dry ice) to gas.
Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).

No, but sometimes "average" means "mean" - when it doesn't mean median, geometric mean, or something else entirely.
