When a solid turns directly into a gas, without passing through a liquid phase, it is called sublimation.
A well-known example is the sublimation of solid carbon dioxide (dry ice) into gas at atmospheric pressure and a temperature of -78.5 oC (about -104 oF). This is sometimes used in theatres or nightclubs to produce a dense fog which remains close to the ground.
Yes, solids can turn into gases through a process called sublimation. Sublimation occurs when a solid transitions directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. An example of this is dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) turning into carbon dioxide gas.
Not always. For a solid to become a gas, it has to also be able to exist in a liquid form. A substance cannot go straight from solid to gas, it must change from a liquid into a gas. For example, ice will become water which can become water vapor. In contrast, a block of wood cannot become a liquid, which means it cannot become a gas.
However, even though metals can be turned to liquid when heated to very high temperatures, most do not have a gaseous form.

Do all solids form a liquid berfore they turn into gas?
No, not all solids form a liquid before turning into gas. Some solids undergo sublimation, where they transition directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase.
Do solids liquids and gases have different masses?
Yes, solids, liquids, and gases have different masses because their particles are packed differently. In general, solids have the most mass because their particles are closely packed, while gases have the least mass because their particles are spread out. Liquids have a mass between that of solids and gases.
How does the kinetic energy of solids liquids and gases compare?
Gases have the highest kinetic energy, followed by liquids, and then solids. -apex
What is the rank of solids liquids and gases in order of particle speed from the highest speed to the lowest speed?
Gases have the highest particle speed, followed by liquids, and then solids. Gases have particles that are widely spaced and move quickly, while liquids have particles that move more slowly due to stronger intermolecular forces, and solids have the slowest particles due to their fixed positions.
How are solids and gases a like?
Solids and gases are both forms of matter with particles that have energy and are in constant motion. However, solids have particles that are closely packed together and vibrating in place, while gases have particles that are far apart and moving freely.
Can all solids turn into gases?
Yes. Any substance can be in any of the four phases.
Do all solids form a liquid berfore they turn into gas?
No, not all solids form a liquid before turning into gas. Some solids undergo sublimation, where they transition directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase.
Which is the gas stored in the fire extinguishers which when realeased forms solids?
There is no type of fire extinguisher that forms solids when released. They release either a gas or liquid or combination. Some liquids may turn into solids when they dry. Some gases (such as CO2) might make OTHER materials turn into solids.
How can volume be use to separate solids and gases?
Solids have a definite volume and gases have a variable volume
All solids liquids and gases are?
some solids,liquids and gases are dangers some are not dangers
Would it be easier to separate solutions of gases or solids?
i would say solids but it depends on how good youare with solids or gases. hope this helps :)
Dose conduction work in solids liquids or gases?
conduction take place in solids and gases
What are not like gases?
Solids and liquids are not like gases.
What are examples of gases that turn to solids?
Iodine gas can return directly to its solid state by cooling it and/or putting it under pressure.
What properties of solids distinguish them from solids and gases?
Solids don't change their size or shape.
What makes up solids liquids and gases?
Molecules - They are more tightly packed in solids than liquids and gases
How does the kinetic of solids liquids and gases compare?
The kinetic energy is lowest in solids, higher in liquids, and highest in gases.
