When a particle of matter meets a particle of antimatter, they annihilate each other, releasing a burst of energy in the form of gamma rays. This process converts their combined mass into pure energy, following Einstein's famous equation E=mc^2.
Anti-particles. In the case of the (normal negatively-charged) electron, the anti-particle has a specific name; the positron. Since normal particles are the building blocks of matter, a collection of anti-particles are termed "anti-matter".
Particles and anti-particles have opposite electric charges, which means they interact differently with electromagnetic fields. They also have opposite quantum numbers, such as lepton number and baryon number. When a particle and its anti-particle meet, they can annihilate each other, releasing energy in the form of photons.
The mass of a positron is approximately 9.1093826(16) × 10−31 kg. The positron and the electron are anti-particles of each other, and you can find out more about the positron at the Wikipedia article on that subject. A link to their post can be found below. There is also a link to a related question on the nature of the positron. That's down there, too.
When two waves meet crest to trough, they undergo destructive interference, canceling each other out. This results in a wave with reduced or no amplitude at the point of interaction.
Solids, liquids, and gases are considered matter because they have mass and occupy space. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, and solids, liquids, and gases all meet these criteria.

As soon as anti-matter comes in contact with matter, the two annihilate. As such, placing anti-matter into any container made of matter would result in both being annihilated. The only way to maintain anti-matter for any length of time is to keep it isolated from matter. Magnetic fields can do this for a short time, but invevitably the anti-matter and the matter meet each other.
When a particle and its antiparticle meet, they are converted into energy. The amount of energy is described by the famous equation e = mc2
because when the atoms meet up in the gases they separate and form more gases of matter. that's basically it!
subduction occurs where 2 continents meet or where the tectonic plates meet. :)
Galvanic corrosion occurs when the two meet (especially when water is present) - use a barrier lubricant (Tefgel or anti-seize) or plate the screws with Nickel/Teflon or Cadmium.
I am in this universe as the other contains my anti-matter self. If I were to meet my anti-matter self, we would both annihilate immediately. Also the collective atoms that make up myself all originated in this universe. The universe contains the same number of atoms always, at least this one does. So I will be always be here in some form or fashion. Hopefully form!

A whirlpool occurs when opposite currents meet.

Evaporation is actually the process by which liquid water changes into vapor and moves into the atmosphere. When air masses with different moisture levels meet, it can lead to the formation of clouds, precipitation, or changes in weather patterns, but this is not directly related to evaporation.
