There is no "opposite" in the way that "good" is the opposite of "bad." Each of those are just different states of matter, points along a continuum. This question is like asking, "What's the opposite of mile marker 1.5 along a highway?" There is no opposite, it's just a point along the way.
Typically: Solid, Liquid, and Gaseous States
Solid --> Liquid = melting Other changes of state: Solid --> Gas = sublimation Gas --> Solid = deposition Liquid --> Solid = freezing/solidification Gas --> Liquid = condensation Liquid --> Gas = vaporization
An aerosol is a colloidal suspension of fine particles (solid or liquid) in a gas.
Going from gas phase directly to solid state will conserve maximum energy. Just the opposite of the statement above will be true for maximum energy release. Changing from solid to directly into gas is called sublimation.
It is a gasxx
A liquid or solid (not a liquid gas)
When something solidifies, it turns from a gas or a liquid to a solid. The opposite of something turning from a liquid or gas to a solid would be something turning from a solid to a liquid or gas. Now, there's a word for something turning from a solid to a gas, but it's not in common use; and very few things go straight from solid to gas (dry ice is one example). So the most appropriate answer would be the word for something turning from solid to liquid, which is "liquify".
The opposite action of boiling (liquid to gas, evaporation) is condensing.At the other end of the liquid phase, the opposite would be freezing (liquid to solid).
The process of vapor turning into a liquid or solid is called condensation. This occurs when the gas molecules lose heat energy and come together to form a liquid or solid. This process is the opposite of evaporation, where liquid turns into gas.
Solid
evaporation solid to liquid - melting liquid to gas - evaporation gas to liquid - condensation liquid to solid - freezing solid to gas and gas to solid - sublimation
Is a pencil a solid liquid or gas
a feather is a solid
There are three basic states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. The number of combinations possible from these states is 3! (3 factorial), which equals 6. The six possible combinations are solid-liquid-gas, solid-gas-liquid, liquid-solid-gas, liquid-gas-solid, gas-solid-liquid, and gas-liquid-solid.
Solid in solid: metal alloys. Liquid in liquid: vinegar dissolving in water. Gas in gas: air. Solid in liquid: salt dissolving in water. Liquid in solid: mercury absorbed by gold. Gas in liquid: carbon dioxide dissolving in soda. Solid in gas: smoke particles in air. Liquid in gas: water vapor in air. Gas in solid: hydrogen absorbed by palladium.
evaporation solid to liquid - melting liquid to gas - evaporation gas to liquid - condensation liquid to solid - freezing solid to gas and gas to solid - sublimation
Freezing (Liquid 2 solid) Melting (solid 2 liquid) Boiling (liquid 2 gas) Evaporation (liquid 2 gas) Condensation (gas 2 liquid) Sublimation (solid 2 gas) hope this helped
