What is the process of a substance changing from a solid to a vapor without through the liquid phase is called?
The solid->gas transition is called sublimation; the gas->solid transition is called deposition. The reason this happens is, essentially, "because that's how things are". It all depends on where on the phase diagram the material happens to be.
What is the only substance that exists as a solid liquid and gas in the Earth's atmosphere?
water
What is the only substance thatexest as a solid liquid and gasses in the earths atmosphere?
Water is the only substance that commonly exists as a solid, liquid, and gas in Earth's atmosphere. Solid water is ice, liquid water is water, and gaseous water is water vapor.
The only substance near the earth's surface that is found naturally in the atmosphere as a solid a liquid and a gas?
Water is the only substance found naturally in the atmosphere as a solid (ice crystals in clouds), a liquid (raindrops), and a gas (water vapor).
Is H2O a solid liquid or gas?
H2O is water. It can be all three. As a solid, it is ice. As a liquid, it is water in the sense of bottled water. As a gas it is water vapor (an example of water vapor is steam).
To covert in to vapor means?
To convert into vapor means to cause a substance to change from a solid or liquid state into a gaseous state. For example, boiling water vaporizes into steam......dry ice (solid CO2) vaporizes directly into CO2 gas
What is an example of sublimation vapor to solid?
A vapor changing into a solid goes through a process called deposition. One example of this process is frost forming on leaves.
Is water vapor an example of a phase?
Yes, water vapor is an example of a phase. In the context of matter, phases refer to distinct states of a substance, which include solid, liquid, and gas. Water exists in three phases: ice (solid), liquid water, and water vapor (gas), with water vapor being the gaseous state that occurs when water evaporates.
What is the root word for vaporizer?
The root word for "vaporizer" is "vapor," which refers to a substance in a gaseous state. A vaporizer is a device that converts a liquid or solid substance into vapor for inhalation.
Why is vapor the same to ice?
No. Vapor is a substance in its gaseous state. Ice is water in its solid state.
The phase change in which a substance change from a solid to a gas or vapor without changing to a liquid first is?
Sublimation is the phase change in which a substance changes from a solid directly to a gas or vapor without passing through the liquid phase. This process occurs when the substance's vapor pressure exceeds that of its solid form at a particular temperature.
What does convert into vapor mean?
To 'convert into vapor' means to change something from the liquid or solid state into a gas. Examples: boiling water (liquid to gas) or dry ice (a solid turning into gas).
What does vapor describe?
Vapor typically refers to a substance in gas form that is typically at a lower temperature than its boiling point. It can also refer to the gaseous state of a substance that is normally a liquid or solid at room temperature.
What is the gas form of something that is solid or liquid at normal temperature?
The gas form of a substance that is solid or liquid at normal temperature is referred to as its vapor or gas phase. For example, when ice (solid water) is heated, it transitions to water vapor (gas) through melting and evaporation. Similarly, when a liquid like mercury is heated, it can also turn into mercury vapor. This transition occurs when the substance reaches its boiling point or undergoes sublimation.
What is volatilty in chemistry?
It is the speed in which a substance changes from a solid to liquid and a liquid to vapor
How can the word 'substance' be used in many sentences?
"There was no substance to his arguments." "The vapor was without substance." "The substance was a solid powder that seemed to react poorly to heat."
Vapor?
a substance diffused or suspended in the air, especially one normally liquid or solid.
