It is called melting.
It is called melting.
When a solid is heated, it gains energy which causes its particles to vibrate faster. Eventually, this increased vibration overcomes the forces holding the particles in a fixed position, leading to the solid melting and turning into a liquid.

Yes. Ice can melt from a solid to a liquid and then the water (liquid) evaporates into a gas and goes up into the air.
the volume of a solid this that humans do to warm up
it is only a solid at room temperature, when you heat it up it turns into a liquid
it may seam like a solid and a liquid, and it is! its called oobleck. No... oobleck isn't a made up word!! when u mix cornstarch and water, it makes oobleck. If u tilt your hand the oobleck will run down your hand like a liquid, but when u touch it... it is a solid. weird right?
A solid, when sufficiently heated, can either become a liquid (melting) or can be converted directly into a gas (sublimation).
The gas in a gas stove can heat up ice until it melts into water and then evaporates into water vapor.
