How do solid and liquid water change to water vapour?

Sufficient energy is added to the molecule to break the inter-molecular bonds. First, in a solid, as energy is added, the bonds absorb the energy, and move more vigorously. So our solid heats up, and eventually, the bonds are broken completely free. We now have a liquid. As energy is added to the liquid, individual molecules absorb enough energy to break free of the surface, and evaporate off into space.


What is the name of the process where a solid turns to liquid then gas?
