Matter can be presented in different states, These are the 6 phase changes of state of matter that exist:
- Melting: Changing from solid to liquid.
- Freezing: Changing from liquid to solid.
- Vaporization: Changing from solid to liquid. An example of vaporization is the evaporation of rubbing alcohol from skin into the air.
- Condensation: Changing gas to liquid. An example of condensation is the formation of dew.
- Sublimation: Changing from solid to gas. An example of sublimation is the changing from ice directly into water vapor on a cold, windy winter day.
- Deposition: Changing from gas to solid.
