Is H2O is Matter or not?

It is matter. because H2O means water, and water is one form of matter cause its liquid.


What makes matter change from one phase to another?

I am pretty sure that it is the temperature which is applied to the substance. For example when heat is applied to a solid it melts, causing it to change from one phase to another. Also when a liquid freezes the temperature drops and it converts into a solid.


What kind of change is a change is a change in the state of matter?

by doing kantot ?? I am not sure about above answer, vulgarity aside but... State of matter refers to solid, liquid, gas, plasma and a couple of other new ones I am not sure of... Phase of matter refers to matter that has uniform properties throughout. They are sometimes used as synonymously. This often doesn't matter but be careful when discussing homogeneous versus heterogeneous chemical reactions. Phase means phase NOT state since two solids are not considered a homogeneous reaction (nor are two immiscible liquids) because they are not in the same phase when mixed (they do not have uniform properties when mixed) even though they are in the same state.


How is the transformation from one crystalline phase to another different from melting or boiling?

A phase transition is the transformation of a thermodynamic system from one phase or state of matter to another. Types of phase transitions are called melting, boiling, etc. They are just terms to describe the specific transition.


What is exchanged when water changes from one phase to another?

I see you're working on number 6. But the answer is Latent Heat.

Is water an example of of homogeneous matter?

Yes, pure water is an example of homogeneous matter as long as it's one phase.


Is water a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?

well... first of all.... water is not a mixture...... and if it is a mixture..... it would be homogenous..... becuase there is only one phase of matter seen....... :)


The change from one state of matter to another is a?

phase change.


What are the three phases of matter in the case of water?

It is not entirely correct to talk about "the" three phases. There are actually more than three phases of matter. In the case of water, the three "main" phases are called: "ice" (for solid water), "liquid water" or just "water" for the liquid phase, and "water vapor" for the gaseous phase. In the case of water, and many other substances, there is also a "supercritical" phase (among others). I don't think this one has a special name, in the case of water. The supercritical phase is used for dry cleaning; although it is more common to use carbon dioxide for this purpose, since it requires less temperature and pressure.


When matter changes from one state to onother what is it called?

When matter changes from one state to another what do you call this?

A 'phase' change.


What is a change of substance from one state of matter to another called?

Phase change. Liquid phase to gaseous phase (evaporation) Liquid phase to solid phase (solidification, freezing) Solid phase to gaseous phase (sublimation9 Etc...


What happens when a substance changes from one state of matter to another?

It undergoes a phase change, such as when a solid (like frozen CO2) sublimates directly to a gas, or when water freezes to ice.


What is a change of one state to another?

The change from one state of matter to another is called a phase transition.
