How does a solid turn into liquid turn into gases?

Answer 1

At any state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas), the molecules that make up tis matter are at a certain speed. To change one's state of matter, you must change it's temperature. For Example, H2O can be any state of matter. As a solid, ice, the molecules are stopped or moving very slowly, which makes it a solid. To speed up the molecules, you apply heat, which in turn, makes the ice, water, a liquid. To heat again would make the water a gas, water vapor. The same thing works reversed. The water vapor is hot, and so it is attracted to something cold, such as a mirror when you take a hot shower. This act, condensation, is alo responsible for water on the side of a drinking glass. Once the hot vapor touches the hot object (think about cooking with a lid), it becomes instantly colder, and it becomes water again. To freeze it could make (as shown in the water cycle), ice, snow, or sleet, once again, making it a solid. I hope this answered your question.

Answer 2

When heat is added to a solid, it gains energy causing its particles to vibrate more and break free from their fixed positions, turning it into a liquid through the process of melting. Further heating of the liquid increases the energy of its particles, causing them to move faster and eventually break free from the forces holding them together, transitioning into a gas through the process of vaporization.

Answer 3

it melts and evaporates

If it is in the case of water, the ice (solid) would turn into water (liquid) first, then evaporate into steam (gas).

Answer 4

due to a process called sublimation
