When solids become gas, the process is called sublimation, where the solid turns directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. When liquids become gas, it is called vaporization, which can occur through evaporation (at the surface) or boiling (throughout the liquid).

How can matter change from one state to another state of matter?

They can;liquid to gas= evapouration(boiling water)liquid to solid=freezing(ice cubes)gas to liquid= condensation(steamy bathroom windows)solid to liquid= melting(ice cubes).


Why are change of state physical changes?

The identity of the property does not change so the physical properties change but not the chemical


Can all liquids become a solid?

Nope. There are some solids that go directly into the gas phase. Such a process is called sublimation. ans2 No. Some solids chemically decompose when heated. You can't get liquid wood. Some solids turn directly into a gas when heated at standard atmospheric pressure. An example of this is dry ice. I believe that some solids, do not ask me but this is a theory that I can't prove, but some solids have such a high melting point that if heated to its melting point the molicules will become so unstable that the solid would accualy blow up before the period of melting can occur. Although have fun trying to find something on earth that can reach that heat output. One example that comes to mind is diamond. I do not believe diamond has ever melted? Correct me if im wrong.


A state of matter that starts as a gas and then becomes ionized?

The state of matter you are referring to is called plasma. Plasma is formed when a gas becomes ionized, meaning it gains or loses electrons to become composed of positively and negatively charged particles. This results in a fourth state of matter distinct from solids, liquids, and gases.


Can you please-Compare the melting points of substances that are gases at room temperature with solids and liquids?

Substances that are gases at room temperature typically have lower melting points than solids and liquids because their intermolecular forces are weaker. Gases have molecules that are further apart, making it easier to overcome these weak forces to change their state. Solids and liquids have stronger intermolecular forces that require more energy to break, resulting in higher melting points.

What are the changes of the state that happens when metamorphic rock changes into magma?

Solids become liquids. A phase change.


What state of matter can be made at low temperatures?

This depends on each material: at low temperatures liquids become solids and gases also liquids and after this solids.


How can solids become liquids and liquids to solids?

Solids become liquids when the temperature reaches melting point, groups of particles start to brake away from each other. This is when the solid starts becoming a liquid. Liquids become solids on cooling, the particles move slower and become a solid.


How are gases liquids and gases different?

Though both can act as fluids liquids are a different and much cooler state of matter. Gases must first become liquids before they can become solids.


What changes state when you put it in a freezer?

mostly liquids sometimes gases can become liquids


Does pressure affect changes of state?

Yes, pressure can affect changes of states in matter. Increasing pressure can help compress gases into liquids or solids, while decreasing pressure can cause liquids to evaporate or solids to sublimate directly into gas.


Which state of matter cannot be compressed?

Solids and liquids are difficult compress. Gases, however, are easy; they respond to changes in temperature and volume.


Which one of the following combinations of terms defines the changes of state between solids and liquids?

solid to liquid: melting liquid to solid: freezing


What types of physical or state changes can solids undergo?

Solids can undergo changes such as melting, sublimation, and deformation. Melting occurs when a solid turns into a liquid, sublimation is when a solid transitions directly into a gas, and deformation involves the restructuring of the solid's shape without changing its state.


What is a solid state of matter?

Besides solids, there are liquids and gases.


Why do the changes of state occur in solids liquids and gases?

You breathe gases, you drink liquids (usually water and water mixtures), and you do just about everything else with solids. you live inside a solid house, use a solid computer, etc.You also swim in water for fun.


What becomes a solid above the melting point?

The melting point is the temperature which a material, element or mixture, changes from the solid to a liquid. Therefore, all liquids become solids above the melting point.
