This is called deposition.
Sublimation
The physical change in a substance directly between gas and solid without becoming a liquid.
Yes. A liquid becoming a solid is the very definition of freezing.
When ice changes directly into a gas without becoming a liquid the process is called sublimation.
In physics, sublimation is the change of a solid directly into a gas without first becoming a liquid.
it's called sublimation
It is called sublimation. A solid directly to a gas, without the intermediate step of becoming a liquid first.
Submilation is when you change something directly from a gas to a liquid, with out changing it into a liquid first.
The opposite of sublimation is deposition, which is the process of a gas directly becoming a solid without going through the liquid state.
The opposite of sublimation is deposition, which is the process of a gas directly becoming a solid without going through the liquid state.
"Under certain circumstances, ice can sublimate directly to water vapor, without ever becoming liquid water."
Condensation is changing from a gas to a liquid. In sublimation, substance goes directly from solid to gas without ever becoming a liquid. Moth balls and dry ice both do that.
