evaporation
-- It could become just a warmer solid. -- If it gains enough heat energy, the solid could melt, becoming liquid. -- Depending on the ambient pressure, the solid could also sublime, becoming gas.
The process of going from gas to solid is known as "deposition." The reverse is known as "sublimation."
Melting, Vaporization, and Sublimation - a solid changes directly to a gas without first becoming a liquid.
The solid -> gas transition is called sublimation. The gas -> solid transition is called deposition.
Gases become liquids when they have less space to occupy or when the temperature is cool enough for that substance to be a liquid. Take water as an example. When the temperature is hot enough, it is steam. As the temperature cools, the molecules loose energy and begin sticking together forming liquid water. As the temperature drops farther, the water turns into a solid. The temperature at which a gas becomes solid varies by the gas. Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide that is normally a gas.
When a solid changes to a gas directly, it is known as sublimation. One example of this is dry ice becoming carbon dioxide.
Some substances can go straight from solid to gas phase by a process called sublimation. A gas going to a solid is a process known as Deposition.
Condensation. A gas becoming a liquid is condensation. A liquid becoming a solid is freezing. A solid becoming a liquid is melting. A liquid becoming a gas is vapourization. A gas becoming plasma is ionization. A plasma becoming a gas is recombination
A solid changing to a gas without becoming a liquid first is called sublimation.
It is called sublimation. A solid directly to a gas, without the intermediate step of becoming a liquid first.

Sublimation is a change of a substance from solid to gas without becoming liquid.
When a gas changes directly to a solid, this is known as deposition.
When a gas changes directly to a solid it is known as deposition.
Gas -> liquid = condinsation Liquid -> solid = solidification Solid -> liquid = fusion Liquid -> gas = evaporation Solid directly to gas (with out becoming liquid) = sublimation Example = dry ice at room temperature.
When a gas changes directly to a solid it is known as deposition.
If a gas changes into a solid, without becoming a liquid first, it goes through deposition.
