all solids can evaporate to a gas
Water as a vapour (gas?) has to condense back to water, which can then become a solid if frozen.
a feather is a solid
The first 20 elements at room temperature are: Hydrogen - gas Helium - gas Lithium - solid Beryllium - solid Boron - solid Carbon - solid Nitrogen - gas Oxygen - gas Fluorine - gas Neon - gas Sodium - solid Magnesium - solid Aluminum - solid Silicon - solid Phosphorus - solid Sulfur - solid Chlorine - gas Argon - gas Potassium - solid Calcium - solid
If it is saturated with a solid solute, you would expect some of the solid to precipitate out - as long as the solid could find a surface to nucleate on. If it is saturated with a gas, you would expect more gas to dissolve into it as long as it was still in contact with the saturating gas in the gas phase.
Sublimation
all solids can evaporate to a gas
If heated above boiling point become gas! (100celcius) If freezed below melting point become solid (0 celcius)
The states of matter are solid, liquid and gas. A solid melts to become liquid and a liquid evaporates to become gas. Sublimation is the direct change from solid to gas.

Butter is a solid. By definition of a solid, butter has a definite shape and a definite volume.
A gas is a gas, as the name suggests. It can, along with liquid be referred to as a fluid. Cooled and pressurised sufficiently it can become a liquid and cooled further, a solid.
A solid, when sufficiently heated, can either become a liquid (melting) or can be converted directly into a gas (sublimation).
The process is called deposition. hi
Evaporation would be the phase change from liquid to gas. The phase change from solid to gas is called sublimation. A liquid can also boil and become a gas.
A liquid or gas become a solid.
The solid solutes.
A liquid or gas become a solid.
