Sublimation is the process where a solid changes directly into a gas instead of changing into a liquid then a gas. A popular example of this process is the transition of dry ice (carbon dioxide) readily turning directly into CO2 gas in standard conditions.

It's called sublimation. An example is dry ice, or solid Carbon dioxide. When heated, CO2 changes directly from the solid state to the gaseous state.
