What is it called When a solid skips the liquid state and goes straight to a gas.?

It's called "sublimation". Dry ice does that at normal atmospheric pressure.


How does heating and cooling cause changes in matter?

When you heat something, you get to do from solid to liquid, and that called melting. The liquid to a gas its called vaporzation and evaporation. A solid to a gas its called sublimation. When you cool something, you get to do from gas to liquid its called condensation. A liquid to a solid called freezing. A gas turn straight to a solid called deposition.


What changes from a solid to a gas but skips the liquid?

Carbon dioxide in it's solid form changes physical states from a solid directly to a gas (process called sublimation), and is more commonly known as dry ice.


What changes from a gas to a solid but skips the liquid?

Carbon dioxide in it's solid form changes physical states from a solid directly to a gas (process called sublimation), and is more commonly known as dry ice.


Does gas come before solid or after solid?

Both! The physical state of a substance can go straight from gas to solid, or can heat from solid to liquid and then to gas. The process a solid undertakes when it goes straight to its gas state from a solid state without first turning liquid is called sublimation.


Is dry ice a solid liquid or a gas?

Dry ice is the solid form (state of matter) of carbon dioxide (CO2).Under normal circumstances, it will change state from a solid directly to a gas. It does this without melting (changing state to a liquid). We call the direct transformation of a solid to a gas sublimation, and dry ice is said to sublime when going directly from its solid state to a gas.


Why napthalene is called a sublimate?

because it turns straight from a solid to gas and bypasses the liquid state.


Substances that undergo deposition?

Frost skips the liquid state, and immediately goes to the solid state of ice.


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 it called when a liquid becomes a gas a gas becomes a liquid a solid becomes a gas?

The point at which a liquid becomes a gas is the boiling point. The point at which a gas becomes a liquid is still called the boiling point. A solid going straight to gas without passing through a liquid state is called sublimation. Dry Ice solid CO2 is a substance that that sublimes.


If we heat a solid it ultimately changes into a liquid?

Not always. Some go straight from solid to gas eg dry ice ... called 'sublimation'.


What is liquid called when a solid?

Either a substance is a liquid, or it is a solid. It can't be both.If it's a solid, it's called a solid.
