The process is evaporation
The change in state from a solid to a liquid is called melting.
The physical change of a solid to a liquid is called melting
It is a change of state. Called boiling.
sublimation and phase change
This change of of phase is called liquefaction.An example is the transformation of water vapor in liquid water.
The transition from a gas to liquid is called condensation
When a substance changes state from a solid to a liquid, it undergoes melting where it gains enough energy to break the bonds holding its particles together. When it changes from a liquid to a gas, it undergoes vaporization where it gains enough energy to overcome the forces of attraction between its particles.
a liquid to a solid is called the melting point:-)
Changes of state, or of phase as it is also called, are described by a single word, but there is a different word for different changes of state. Solid to liquid is called melting. Liquid to solid is called freezing. Liquid to gas is called boiling. Gas to liquid is called condensing. Solid to gas is called sublimation.
The process is called a phase change or a change of state. This occurs when matter transitions from one physical state, such as solid, liquid, or gas, to another state due to changes in temperature or pressure.
It is called melting when a solid turns into a liquid
This change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) is called freezing; it is a physical change, the chemical nature of the molecules is not changed.
