The phase changes that involve a release of heat are those in which the particles move closer together. Thus, freezing is one phase change that involves a release of heat. The other such change is condensation.

A phase change of gas to liquid, or from liquid to solid, both result in a release of energy. So would the more rare phase change of gas directly to solid.

Gas to liquid, liquid to solid, gas to solid are all exothermic phase changes. They release heat.

Whenever you have to cool something down, you are releasing heat, so I would say the changes Freezing and Condensation release heat. :)

What phase changes require the addition of energy?

Phase changes requiring the addition of heat energy are the phase changes from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, and solid to gas. These phase changes are termed melting (solid to liquid), evaporation (liquid to gas), and sublimation (solid to gas).


When a substance changes from one phase to another what occurs?

Heat is transferred.


Which phase changes are endothermic?

Based on chemical properties exothermic phase changes are those that release energy. The exothermic phase changes are gas--> liquid, liquid --> solid, and gas--> solid. Looking at a phase diagram if you are going up the "stairs" the conversions require energy going down the "stairs" energy is released.
