A vapor changing into a solid goes through a process called deposition. One example of this process is frost forming on leaves.

The term used for the conversion of solid to vapor is sublimation.
This process is called sublimation. It occurs when a solid substance changes directly into a gas without passing through the liquid state. Sublimation is a physical change driven by the solid substance's vapor pressure exceeding the surrounding pressure.
Sublimation is when a solid goes to a gas when heated rather than going to a liquid first. At normal pressure solid carbon dioxide and iodine go directly to vapor without going to a liquid first.
When a substance is below the triple point, the equilibrium will be between solid and vapor rather than solid/liquid or liquid/vapor. Sublimation is the direct change from solid to vapor without any intermediate phase change. The latent heat of sublimation is the energy required to change a given quantity of solid into the vapor at equilibrium. It is analogous to (but not the same as) latent heat of melting (energy required to melt the solid to liquid) and latent heat of vaporization (energy required to change a liquid into a gas).
Dry ice (solid CO2) sublimes- the cold CO2 - the "fog" is caused by condensation of water vapour in the air. Another example is solid iodine, which when heated in a test tube sublimes and precipiattes at the cool end of the tube.
Solid to vapor is sublimation.
sublimation
The direct transition of solid ice to vapor is called sublimation. It occurs when the solid ice skips the liquid phase and turns directly into water vapor without melting.
No, a vapor is a gas. Sublimation is the process by which a solid becomes a gas (vapor).

sublimation
The change of state from a solid directly to a vapor is called sublimation. This process occurs when a solid substance bypasses the liquid phase and turns into a gas. Examples of substances that undergo sublimation include dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and mothballs (solid naphthalene).

solid ice to vapor
Sublimation. This is going from a solid to a gas, without passing through the liquid phase.
