If you get up to the right temperature, any substance can turn into a liquid or a gas (since in some cases, e.g. Iodine, the solid skips the liquid stage and turns straight into a gas. this is called Subliming).
For example, here is a list of some of the things we would normally never think of as a liquid or gas!
Gold Melting Point: 1064.18°C, 1947.52°F -- Boiling Point: 2856°C, 5173°F
Copper Melting Point: 1084.62°C, 1984.32°F -- Boiling Point: 2562°C, 4643°F
Calcuium Melting Point: 842°C, 1548°F -- Boiling Point: 1484°C, 2703°F
And just for fun, here are temperatures needed to turn some gasses into solids:
Oxygen Melting Point: -218.79°C, -361.82°F -- Boiling Point: -182.95°C, -297.31°F
Nitrogen Melting Point: -210.00°C, -346.00°F -- Boiling Point: -195.79°C, -320.3342°F
Xenon Melting Point: −111.7°C, −169.1°F -- Boiling Point: −108.12°C, −162.62°F It should be pointed out that some solids undergo sublimation where they go from solid phase to gas phase without a liquid phase, a detailed Periodic Table should tell you which solids sublime, an example is carbon.
What else can I help you with?
Is a snowman liquid solid or gas?
A snowman is a solid when it's done being built, and is a liquid when it melts away. The only time that it would turn gas was if you poured boiling water over it.
When water melts from a ice cube it changes from a?
from a solid into a liquid.
When a solid melts does the number of atoms decrease?
No, it is not correct.
What comes after solid?
Liquid comes after solid in the states of matter sequence. When a solid is heated, it melts into a liquid state.
What happens to the molecules as a solid melts?
As a substance melts, the molecules of the formerly-solid substance becomes less structured and drifts further apart.
How does heating a solid turn into a liquid?
it melts
How Can Solid melts without heating?
i think through temperature which is present in our environment.
What is the nature of a solid when it is heated it melts at a definite temperature and further heating produces black solid and a gas?
carbon
When solid NaCl is heated from room temperature it melts. Explain the change?
By heating the internal energy of a solid increase what leads to melting when the crystalline system is destroyed and the solid become a liquid.
Is it true or false that when solid melts it turns into gas?
both. It depends what substance it is. For example: solid water (ice) melts into liquid water (water) and then that melts into gas water (water vapour). Another example is that frozen carbon dioxide (c02)which is a solid also known as dry ice, melts into c02 gas hence the name dry ice because when it melts it goes straight into a gas state.
What state of matter does it take when solid melts?
Solid matter turns into a liquid when it melts.
How does liquids turn into a solids?
To turn from a solid to a liquid it must reach it's melting point by heating up. Examples: ice to water, rocks to magma. Every thing melts at a different temperature.
When a ice cube is a solid and it melts what is it?
When it melts it is a liquid
