Is vapor a liquid a solid or a gas?

Water (H2O) comes in three different physical states; liquid, solid and gas. Water vapor is water in a gaseous state. Water vapor can be produced from the evaporation or boiling of liquid water or through the sublimation of ice. Typically water vapor is constantly being created by evaporation. Unlike the solid or liquid state of water, water vapor is not visible to the human eye.


What physical changes can water undergo?

Water can exist in three physical states: solid (ice), liquid (water), and gas (water vapor). It can undergo physical changes such as freezing (turning into ice), melting (turning into water), evaporation (turning into water vapor), condensation (turning back into liquid), and sublimation (directly turning from solid to gas).


Is mist a solid liquid or gas?

A mist is a gas. It is not a solid or a liquid. An example of a solid would be a rock, of a liquid would be water and of gas would be steam. Other examples of are gas: steam vapor/vapour (water vapour)


Does evaporation have anything to do with solid liquid or gas?

Evaporation is the process by which a liquid, such as water, changes into a gas, such as water vapor. It typically occurs at the surface of a liquid when it is heated. Evaporation happens in the liquid phase, converting it into a gas phase.


Is condensation of water vapor the same as solidification?

No, condensing is the turning of water gas (vapor of steam) into a liquid while solidification is changing the liquid phase into a solid phase (ice). I believe if I can remember my Thermdynamics that all fluids can also directly from gas into a solid at high pressures. I believe that is called sublimation.

Is a water vapor a solid liquid or gas?

Water vapor is a gas. It is the gaseous phase of water when it evaporates into the air.


Is water vapor a solid liquid or a gas?

Water vapor is a gas, not a solid or a liquid. It is the gaseous state of water when it is heated to its boiling point and evaporates into the air. Water in its liquid state becomes water vapor when it reaches a temperature of 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit) at standard atmospheric pressure.
