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

What is it called when water changes from a solid directy to a gas?
The process by which water (liquid) changes into Water vapor (gas) is called Evaporation.
When water changes into a solid it is?
When water changes into a solid it becomes a solid!
What is the process called when water changes from a solid into a liquid?
MELTING is the term for the process where water changes from a solid into a liquid.
What is the change over from gas directly to solid called?
Deposition or, if water, frosting.
When a solid changes directly to a gas the process is called what?
Deposition is the process in which a gas changes directly to a solid.At the proper conditions the thermodynamic equilibrium will be between solid and gas rather than solid/liquid or liquid/gas. Under these conditions it is thermodynamically unfavorable to form a liquid phase. As an example - anything below the triple point of water will only allow solid/gas equilibrium.For example:Iodine vapours when condensed at 1 atmosphere pressure change directly to solid iodine.Frost will form on the windshield of a carNote: the reverse process of changing directly from solid to gas is called sublimation. Sublimation is NOT the process of Gas --> Solid. That would be like confusing melting with freezing or confusing boiling with condensing.
The process by which water vapor changes directly to a solid is called?
deposition
What is the process by which water vapor changes directly to a solid is called?
Deposition
Which liquid change directly to solid?
Water changes directly to a solid when heat is applied
What is the term called when gaseous state is converted into solid state in one component of water system?
The process in which a gas changes directly into a solid is called deposition.
What is it called when water changes into solid?
I think it is called freezing
What material changes from a solid to a gas?
The most well known is dry ice, which changes directly from solid carbon dioxide into the gaseous state. Water can change directly from ice into water vapor (a dry wind blowing over a snow bank will reduce its volume as the frozen water changes directly into water vapor). These are examples of sublimation.
What is the process called when water changes from solid to liquid?
The name for solid water is ice. It changes to a liquid when it melts.
When water changes to a solid form it is called?
Ice.
What is the unusual feature of solid to gas and gas to solid phase changes?
The three phases of matter (as classically defined) are solid, liquid and gas. Most phase changes that begin with solid and end with gas pass through the liquid phase on the way. Likewise, phase changes that begin with gas and end with solid pass through liquid on the way. Think of water... usually, from solid ice it passes first to liquid water, and only then does it evaporate to gaseous water vapor. It is sometimes possible for solid to change directly to gas. or gas change directly to solid, but these phase changes are the exception, so they can be called "unusual".
What is the process called when solid water changes to liquid water?
Melting.
What type of precipitation is formed when water vapor changes directly into a solid?
snow or hail
What is it called when water changes from a solid directy to a gas?
The process by which water (liquid) changes into Water vapor (gas) is called Evaporation.
