Study Notes
Physical Science: Changes of State
- Water exists in three states: liquid, solid (ice), and gas (water vapor).
- Changes between these states are driven by temperature alterations.
- Freezing occurs when liquid water transforms into solid ice, prompted by decreasing temperatures.
- Melting reverses this process, transitioning solid ice back to liquid water when temperatures rise.
- Evaporation converts liquid water to gaseous water vapor through heating.
- Condensation is the opposite, where gaseous water vapor transforms back into liquid water when cooled.
