both. It depends what substance it is. For example: solid water (ice) melts into liquid water (water) and then that melts into gas water (water vapour). Another example is that frozen carbon dioxide (c02)which is a solid also known as dry ice, melts into c02 gas hence the name dry ice because when it melts it goes straight into a gas state.

True. The temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas is called the boiling point.
True. When an ice cube absorbs mechanical energy, it increases its internal energy, causing its temperature to rise and eventually melt.
False. A beef steak is not an example of a crystalline solid. Crystalline solids have a regular and ordered arrangement of atoms or molecules, whereas the structure of a beef steak is more complex and heterogeneous.
False. When a molecular solid mixes with water, the solute typically breaks apart into individual ions or molecules, rather than breaking down into individual molecules. This process is known as dissociation.
True. A change in state, such as from solid to liquid or gas, is a physical change because the substance's chemical composition remains the same and only its physical properties, like shape or state, change.

True. A wet rock generally melts at a lower temperature than a dry rock because the presence of water in the rock lowers its melting point due to the water acting as a flux, reducing the energy required for melting.
True, both the crust and mantle are composed of solid rock. The innermost part of the crust is also believed to be solid, although it may experience some plastic deformation under extreme pressures and temperatures.
True. Water has a lower melting point than most rocks, so when a rock is wet, the presence of water can lower the overall melting point of the rock.
True. Sublimation is the process by which a substance goes from a solid state directly to a gas state without passing through the liquid state.

That statement is true.

False. Pluto is solid.
The statement is false.
