What happens when a substance changes state from a solid or liquid?

When a substance changes state from a solid to a liquid, it undergoes melting where it gains enough energy to break the bonds holding its particles together. When it changes from a liquid to a gas, it undergoes vaporization where it gains enough energy to overcome the forces of attraction between its particles.
