What else can I help you with?
What is called when you turn a gas into a solid and a solid into a gas?
Turning a solid to a gas is sublimation. You cannot go directly from a gas to a solid. First you have to condense the gas and then freeze it. Sure you can - at the triple point
Wax like all matter comes in many phases. What are the three possible phases?
gas soild lique
When does phase changes occur?
When a solid melts or changes to a liquid. When a liquid boils or changes to a gas. or the reverse when a gas condenses to a liquid or a liquid freezes to a solid. Also it is possible for a solid to go directly to a gas without passing through the liquid stage. This is called sublimation and can occur with sulfur when heated, or ice in the winter when the sun shines on it..
At which temperature does a solid become a gas?
The answer depends on the solid. Most solids do not turn to gas directly to gas, but melt, and then boil at a different temperature. Water does this; ice melts at 0o, and boils at 100o. Some materials go directly from solid to gas, a process called sublimation, two examples being carbon dioxide and iodine. But they do this at very different temperatures.
What is the change of state directly form solid to gas or from gas to solid?
The change of state directly from solid to gas is called sublimation, and the change from gas to solid is called deposition.
Is it possible for a solid to go straight to a gas?
yes. eg: naphthanol, iodine
How many combinations of the three states of matter are there?
There are three basic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. The number of combinations possible from these states is 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. The six possible combinations are solid-liquid-gas, solid-gas-liquid, liquid-solid-gas, liquid-gas-solid, gas-solid-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid.
Is it possible to make a gas into a solid?
yes
Is it possible to stand on a gas giant?
No. A gas giant, as the term implies, is made of gas and has no solid surface.
Is it possible for a solid to change into a gas?
yes. its called sublimation
Can solid be a solution?
It is possible for a gas to dissolve into a solid, in which case you could say that the mixture of solid and gas is a type of solution. An example is hydrogen dissolving in platinum.
Is the stratosphere a solid or a gas?
The stratosphere is a rarefied gas; solids are possible only as minute impurities.
What is it called when gas becomes a solid?
I don't think that this is possible.
When the molecules in a body move with increased speed it's possible that the body will change from a A. liquid to a gas. B. gas to a liquid. C. gas to a solid. D. liquid to a solid.?
Only one phase change of the four is possible, that of a liquid to a gas. Increased molecular energy is related to dissociative phase changes : solid to liquid / liquid to gas.
When the molecules in a body move with increased speed it's possible that the body will change from a a gas to a liquid b liquid to a solid c liquid to a gas d gas to a solid?
Only one phase change of the four is possible, that of a liquid to a gas. Increased molecular energy is related to dissociative phase changes : solid to liquid / liquid to gas.
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.
What makes sublimation possible?
according to kinectic particle theory the changing of state from solid to gas and gas to solid directly is sublimation eg sodium chloride.
