Melting is solid to liquid. Sublimation is a change from solid to gas with no liquid stage. Dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) sublimates directly to carbon dioxide gas. No liquid- hence "dry" ice.

What types of physical or state changes can solids undergo?

Solids can undergo changes such as melting, sublimation, and deformation. Melting occurs when a solid turns into a liquid, sublimation is when a solid transitions directly into a gas, and deformation involves the restructuring of the solid's shape without changing its state.


What are the six different phase changes?

The six different phase changes are: Melting (solid to liquid) Freezing (liquid to solid) Vaporization (liquid to gas) Condensation (gas to liquid) Sublimation (solid to gas) Deposition (gas to solid)


What three phase changes need the input of thermal energy?

The three phase changes that require the input of thermal energy are melting, vaporization, and sublimation. Melting is the change from solid to liquid, vaporization is the change from liquid to gas, and sublimation is the change from solid to gas. In all these processes, thermal energy is needed to break the intermolecular forces holding the particles together.


What is a change from one state of matter to another involves the transfer is called?

Melting is from solid to liquid, evaporation is from liquid to gas, freezing is from liquid to solid, and sublimation is from solid right to gas, and condensation is from gas to liquid. It goes like this, stupid person, top is with heating up, bottom is for cooling down. Sublimation { -----------------------------------------} { melting Evaporation } Solid------------Liquid------------------Gas freezing condensation I hope you are not 2 stupid to read this.


What are changes of state that require energy?

Melting, vaporization, and sublimation are changes of state that require energy. During these processes, energy is used to overcome intermolecular forces holding the particles together so that they can move more freely.

How does the process of sublimation of ice differ from the melting of ice?

Sublimation of ice is when ice turns directly into water vapor without melting into liquid water first. This process occurs when ice is exposed to high temperatures and low pressures. In contrast, melting of ice is the process where solid ice turns into liquid water when exposed to temperatures above its melting point.


Sublimation includes melting True or false?

false


What is the word for ice changing into water vapor without melting first?

The word for a solid turning into a gas without going through the liquid phase is - sublimation.


Is alwayes sublimation point higher than melting point?

This question is unanswerable because anything that sublimes won't ever melt. Because sublime = the change from solid to gas, while at no point becoming a liquid. and melting = the process of heating a solid substance to a liquid I would beg to differ. Sublimation depends on other variables as well, i.e. pressure. (lower pressure) Water is a substance that sublimates and melts. It's sublimation point is actually lower than it's melting point (if it were higher the substance would be in it's transition state... defeating the purpose) I don't know nearly enough to tell you anything else, except that in a single substance, it is more likely that the sublimation point is lower.


Is it true melting is considered an sublimation change because energy is gained by substance as it changes stae?

Melting is a phase change in which a substance changes from the solid state to the liquid state. Sublimation is a phase change in which a solid moves directly into the gas phase. Both melting and sublimation are two types of physical change.

Melting, Freezing, Condensation, Evaporation, and Sublimation.
