When ice changes into water vapor must it melt first?
No - ice can go straight to vapor without first melting. The process is known as "sublimation".
What are examples of solids that will turn into liquids?
Ice melting is probably the most common sight
When ice changes into water vapor without first melting?
It is called sublimation.
What is the phase change that occurs when a solid goes directly to a gas without melting first?
Sublimation.
What year was the first diamond melted?
Diamonds have never been melted due to the fact that nothing on earth could hold liquid diamond without melting.

What is the process called when solids vaporize without becoming a liquid first?
volitilize
Is lithium a solid at boiling point?
No. Solids do not boil, but they may sublime, which is when a solid goes directly into the gas phase without melting first. However, lithium does not sublime. Its melting point is 180.54 degrees Celsius, and its boiling point is 1342 degrees Celsius. So lithium is a liquid before reaching its boiling point.
What is the change of solid to gas without melting first?
It is called 'sublimation'.

What is the word for ice changing into water vapor without melting first?
The word for a solid turning into a gas without going through the liquid phase is - sublimation.

Sublimation.
Who descoverd the platonic solids?
We don't know for certain who discovered the platonic solids first. However, Pythagoras is credited by some sources as discovering the platonic solids first. Other sources credit Theaetetus as being the first to describe all five platonic solids and proving that these are the *only* platonic solids.
What element of the first eighteen elements has the highest melting point?
Carbon (C) has the highest melting point out of all the elements, and so, as it's in the first 20 elements, it has the highest melting point of the first 20 elements too. Its melting point is 3823K.
Why doesn't butter melt all together?
Butter does not have a definite melting point because it is an example of an amorphous solids, and amorphous solids have non uniform attractive forces between the particles. Therefore the particles of the butter will not all melt together but rather the melting will happen gradually. Having a mixture of particles where some areas are going to have strong forces of bonds and other weak forces of bonds. The weak forces will over come first and later the strong forces will overcome, and that is how butter melts.
What happens to ice when sublimed?
It changes of state from solid directly into gas (vapor) without getting fluidised (by melting first). It is used in freeze-drying
