Understand the Problem

The question is asking to fill in the blanks related to the concepts of changes of state in matter, specifically sublimation, evaporation, melting, freezing, and condensation. This involves understanding the definitions and relationships between these physical processes.

Answer

The blanks are: evaporation, freezing, solidification, decreases, condensation.

Both sublimation and evaporation occur only on the surface of a substance. The reverse of melting is freezing. When butter is heated it melts, and when that melted butter cools and solidifies the process is called solidification. When a gas turns to a liquid, the energy of the particles decreases. Vaporization is the reverse of condensation.

Answer for screen readers

Both sublimation and evaporation occur only on the surface of a substance. The reverse of melting is freezing. When butter is heated it melts, and when that melted butter cools and solidifies the process is called solidification. When a gas turns to a liquid, the energy of the particles decreases. Vaporization is the reverse of condensation.

More Information

These phase changes involve energy shifts that affect the state and structure of matter.

Tips

Common mistakes include confusing sublimation with deposition and vaporization with evaporation.
