Why can some substances transition from a gaseous state of matter directly into a solid state of matter?
This process is called deposition.
Is it the same when matter changes from gas to solid as when something sublimates?
They are not the same thing.When something changes directly from solid to gas, it is said to sublimate.When matter changes from gas to solid it is called deposition, or sometimes called desublimation.
Solid to gas with no liquid state is called?
It is slow vapourization process. This process is called evaporation.

What is a gas changing into a solid or solid into a gas?
