To change a solid into a liquid, you melt it. To change a liquid into a gas, you boil it. To change a gas into a liquid, you condense it. To change a liquid into a solid, you freeze it.
Some solids cannot be melted. Complex molecules may break down or burn before they melt e.g. wood, meat.
To change one state of matter to another, you need to either add or remove heat energy. For example, to change a solid to a liquid, you would need to add heat energy to melt the solid. Similarly, to change a liquid to a gas, you would need to add heat energy to evaporate the liquid.
This is called a change in the physical state of the substance. For example formation of ice from water is a change in the physical state of water.
Heating can change matter from a solid to a liquid or from a liquid to a gas. Cooling can change matter from a gas to a liquid or from a liquid to a solid.
A change in state can be caused by either adding or removing energy from a substance. For example, adding heat can cause a solid to melt into a liquid, and removing heat can cause a liquid to freeze into a solid. Pressure changes can also cause a substance to change state, such as turning a gas into a liquid by increasing pressure.
Molecules can change states of matter through the processes of melting, freezing, vaporization, condensation, and sublimation. These changes in state occur when the temperature or pressure of the substance is altered, causing the molecules to rearrange in a way that transitions the substance from one state to another.
tempature
It causes matter to change by turning the water into gas which is vaporization, turning water into ice.

Change of state.
Temperature. Temperature causes matter to change state.
The change from one state of matter to another is called a phase transition.
phase change.
a chemical change
changes in temperature are usually what causes matter to change its state.
changes in temperature are usually what causes matter to change its state.
A change in state of matter is typically caused by varying temperature and pressure conditions. When these conditions are altered, the kinetic energy of particles changes, leading to a transition from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, or vice versa. This change occurs as the intermolecular forces between particles are either strengthened or weakened.
