Name the processes involved in the interconversion of states of matter.
Name the processes involved in the interconversion of states of matter.
Interconversion of the matter: The change of one state to another.
It is a process in which matter changes from one state to another and back to its original state, without any change in its chemical composition.
(i) Solid to Liquid: Melting
(ii) Liquid to Gas: Evaporation
(iii) Gas to liquid: Condensation
(iv) Liquid to Solid: Freezing
(v) Solid to Gas: Sublimation
(vi) Gas to Solid: Deposition
i. Melting: The process in which solids change to a liquid is called melting. The melting point is the temperature at which solids change to a liquid.
ii. Evaporation: It is a process by which a substance changes from liquid to gaseous state on heating at any temperature.
iii Condensation: The process by which a substance changes from the gaseous state to the liquid state is known as condensation.
iv. Freezing: The process of liquid water changing to solid ice is termed freezing. The temperature at which it occurs is known as the freezing point.
v. Sublimation: The transition of the solid phase to the gaseous phase without passing the intermediate liquid phase is known as sublimation.
vi. Deposition: The transition in which gas transforms into solid without passing through the liquid state.
