Lots of things. For example:
- Water freezes (liquid->solid) at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, 0 degrees Celsius, and 273 Kelvin. These temperatures are also the melting points (solid->liquid).
- Water vaporizes (liquid->vapor) at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, 100 degrees Celsius and 373 Kelvin. This is also the condensation point (vapor->liquid). Water does not commonly form a gas, but rather a vapor which is slightly different (but really just the name of a gas that is normally a liquid).
- There is latent heat in water so you can remove energy without changing the temperature of the water (only exactly at a phase change though).
- The specific heat of water is 4.18 Joules/mole.
the water cycle
It will change state from a solid to a liquid to a gas and finally to a plasma.
Solid to liquid: meltingLiquid to solid: freezing
When ice melts, its mass doesn't change. It just goes through a phase change and becomes water. Again, when water evaporates, it goes through a phase change and becomes water vapor. The conservation of mass is hence proved.
Yes energy reqired during each phase change process. solid to liquid(water) = 333.7 Kj/kg liquid to vapour(water) =2257.1Kj/kg
It is not true.
When ice melts and becomes water, that is a phase change. Same when water boils and becomes steam (a gas) that is also a phase change.
This phase change is called evaporation.
The phase change of water (liquid) to ice (solid) is called solidification.
The Phase Change is complete, e.g water melting from ice phase to liquid phase or water evaporating from liquid to gas. Save
the water cycle
A phase change is not a chemical change since the chemical remains the same; water is still water, whether it is in the solid, liquid, or gas phase.
No. Water freezing into ice is a good example of a "phase change". Ice can melt back into water, so we know that the phase change is not permanent!
A change of phase; from gas phase (water vapors) to liquid phase; the phenomenon is called condensation.
Frost is a phase change of a gas to a solid (deposition). Water vapor turns directly to ice.
