Study Notes

Water Changes

  • Water exists in three states: solid (ice), liquid, and gas (water vapor/steam).
  • Evaporation: Liquid water changes to gas (water vapor) at any temperature.
  • Boiling: Liquid water changes to gas (steam) at a specific temperature.
  • Condensation: Gas (water vapor) changes to liquid water when cooled.
  • Freezing: Liquid water changes to ice (solid) when cooled.
  • Melting: Ice (solid) changes to liquid water when heated.

Water Cycle

  • Water continuously cycles between these states in nature.
  • Water exists as liquid in oceans, lakes, etc.
  • Water exists as ice/snow in cold areas.
  • Water exists as water vapor in the air and clouds.
