What is it called when water changes from a solid directly to a gas?

Water vapor that changes in to an ice crystal is called deposition. This what happens in the formation of snow.


Forms when water vapor changes into solid?

Condensation is the form in which water vapor changes into liquid. If water vapor in the atmosphere cools enough, it changes back into liquid. This process of water vapor changing to a liquid is called Condensation.


What process by which water vapor changes to a solid?

Condensation, which changes vapor to liquid water, and freezing, which changes liquid water to solid ice.


When ice changes into water vapor what is the process called?

sublimation


Which is most dense liquid water water vapor or ice?

liquid water followed by ice, finally followed by vapor. You can verify this by thinking about what happens when ice is in a cup of liquid water.


What is the process in which water vapor rises to high altitudes where the air is cold and changes the water vapor into liquid or ice?

evaporation then condensation


What is the process of water vapor changing into water vapor?

Sublimation is most often used to describe the process of snow and ice changing into water vapor in the air without first melting into water. The opposite of sublimation is "deposition", where water vapor changes directly into ice-such a snowflakes and frost.


When ice changes into water vapor must it melt first?

No - ice can go straight to vapor without first melting. The process is known as "sublimation".


What causes ice to change into water vapor?

Direct transformation of a solid to a gas is called sublimation.


What happens to water vapor when it cools on a glass of ice tea and becomes a liquid?

what happens is that the air(vapor) changes state back to liquid when it hits the cold glass since the temperature lowers the energy of the gas and transforms it back to a liquid.


Can you change liquid water to water vapor by frezzing the water?

That's actually backwards. Freezing liquid water changes it to ice. Boiling it will turn it into water vapor


When does ice change directly into water vapour?

Sublimation is most often used to describe the process of snow and ice changing into water vapor in the air without first melting into water. The opposite of sublimation is "deposition", where water vapor changes directly into ice-such a snowflakes and frost.
