In a word, temperature. A physical change will change the matter's state based on it's temperature. For example, water, H2O. You can increase the temperature to 212oF and it will change state from a liquid to a gas. You can decrease the temperature to 32oF and it will change state from a liquid to a solid. To answer your question, the process of doing so would be increasing or decreasing temperature of matter.

What is the name for the process when solid changes in to liquid?
Sublimation is the process in which solid directly changes into gaseous state. In the case of changing gas into solid, the process is known as deposition.
Evaporation is the process where a liquid changes from its what state to what state?
Evaporation is the process where a liquid state changes from its LIQUID state to a GAS state.
What process changes water into a gaseous state?
In evaporation, a liquid such as water changes to a gaseous state. In sublimation, a solid such as ice changes driectly to a gas or vapor without going through a liquid state.
