When water changes from a gas (water vapor) to a solid (ice) it is called deposition. That is how snowflakes form in a cloud.
It is the opposite of sublimation.

What does Turning liquid water into water vapor mean?
Order. Solid, liquid,gas/vapor. So It's when Liquid converts into a gas/vapor.
Can fresh water occur as a gasliquidor solid?
Yes. As a gas, it is called water vapor, and is invisible. As a liquid, it is called water, and as a solid, it is called ice.
What is Water in its solid state in the atmosphere called?
Solid is snow; liquid is rain and gas is water vapor
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.
What is it called when water turns straight form solid to gas?
Sublimation is a change of a substance from solid to gas without becoming liquid.

What is name start in S in solid to gas?
Assuming you mean the process where a solid converts directly to a gas - without changing to liquid form first - it's called 'submlimation'
Can fresh water occur as a gasliquidor solid?
Yes. As a gas, it is called water vapor, and is invisible. As a liquid, it is called water, and as a solid, it is called ice.
What is a change between solid and gas?
If something changes directly from a solid to a gas, it is said to sublime. This happens at time with ice, for example, were, instead of melting to a liquid it converts directly to water vapor.
A natural gas water heater converts what?
It converts cold water to hot water.
What is Water in its solid state in the atmosphere called?
Solid is snow; liquid is rain and gas is water vapor

Can a gas change to a solid. If yes what is it called?
Yes, a gas can change directly to a solid. This process is called deposition. The gas particles condense and pack tightly together forming a solid directly. Water (or water vapor in its gas phase) can change directly into ice by subfreezing the water vapor.
What is it called when water turns straight form solid to gas?
Sublimation is a change of a substance from solid to gas without becoming liquid.
What is a gas changing into a solid or solid into a gas?
Changing directly from a gas to a solid is called deposition.Changing directly from a solid to a gas is called sublimation.
What is water in any its three forms called?
Water as a solid is ice, as a liquid it is water, and as a gas it is called fog or vapor.
Change from a solid to a gas and vice versa?
The solid -> gas transition is called sublimation. The gas -> solid transition is called deposition.
