Gas changing into a solid or a solid changing into a gas?

Gas changing into a solid is called deposition, where gas molecules lose energy and come together to form a solid. On the other hand, solid changing into a gas is called sublimation, where solid molecules gain enough energy to break free and become a gas without passing through the liquid state.


What is changing of a gas into a solid?

The process of a gas changing directly into a solid is called deposition. This occurs when gas molecules lose energy and move closer together, forming a solid without passing through the liquid phase. Examples include snowflakes forming from water vapor in the atmosphere.


To change or cause to change from a soft or fluid state to a firm or solid state?

Changing from a gas to a solid is called deposition.Since the opposite process... going from a solid to a gas... is sublimation, sometimes the gas-to-solid transition is called "desublimation."


What is difference between liquifaction and condensation?

Liquefaction is the process of changing a substance from a solid state to a liquid state, while condensation is the process of changing a substance from a gas state to a liquid state. Liquefaction usually occurs with solids, while condensation usually occurs with gases.


What are the differences between freezing melting and evaporation?

Changing the liquid state to solid state is known as freezing, changing from solid state to liquid state is known as melting and changing from liquid or solid state to gaseous state is known as evaporation.

What is a solid and a gas at the same time?

Water can be a solid, liquid, and gas at the same time. This is due to the varying energies of the molecules while they are in a changing state.


What does changing state mean?

We know that there are four states of matter. Solid, liquid, gaseous and ionic (plasma) As one substance changes from one state into the other it is known as change of state Example: Ice (solid) melts into water (liquid) and gets evaporated ( gaseous) as water vapour.


Changing state from solid to gas?

The process of changing from a solid to a gas directly is called sublimation. It occurs when the solid absorbs enough heat energy to break the intermolecular forces holding its particles together, allowing them to escape into the gaseous state without passing through the liquid phase.


What is changing state?

A change of phase, from solid to liquid, or liquid to gas, or gas to liquid, etc., is also sometimes called a change of state.


Is dry ice a solid liquid or a gas?

Dry ice is the solid form (state of matter) of carbon dioxide (CO2).Under normal circumstances, it will change state from a solid directly to a gas. It does this without melting (changing state to a liquid). We call the direct transformation of a solid to a gas sublimation, and dry ice is said to sublime when going directly from its solid state to a gas.


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.
