when a liquid changes to a solid, it is known as its freezing point. The particles moves closer together and tighter therefore there isn't much room for them to move around as much so they don't collide as much

Condensation happens when a gas changes into an?

Condensation happens when a gas or a vapor changes into a liquid or a solid. H2O (v) ----->H2O (l or s) V= vapor L=liquid S=solid


What is it called when something changes from solid to liquid?

solid to liquid= meltingliquid- solid= freezingliquid to gas= vaporization (There is two forms- boiling and evaporation. The difference is that evaporation happens on the surface of the liquid, and boiling happens throughout.)gas to liquid= condensationgas to solid= depositionsolid to gas= sublimation


What happens when a liquid changes into a solid?

When a liquid changes into a solid, it undergoes a process called solidification or freezing. The molecules in the liquid slow down and come closer together, forming a stable crystalline structure. This process releases heat energy as the molecules lose kinetic energy, resulting in the formation of a solid with a fixed shape and volume.


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..


What happens when candel wax changes from a solid to a liquid?

When candle wax changes from a solid to a liquid, the heat from the flame melts the wax. The heat breaks the solid wax molecules apart, turning them into a liquid that can flow. Once the liquid wax cools down again, it solidifies, forming a new layer of solid wax.
