The diagram shows changes of state between solid, liquid, and gas. the atoms of a substance gain energy during a change of state. before the change, the atoms are close together and cannot slide past one another. after the change, the substance can fill its container.

which arrow represents the change of state described above?

l
m
n
o

Answer is: L.

The process by which a solid changes directly to a gas without first becoming a liquid is called sublimation.

Sublimation is an endothermic process.

For example dry ice (carbon(IV) oxide in solid state) is used because of sublimation in nightclubs, fog machines, at theaters, haunted house attractions .

1) Gas: does not have a definite shape or volume and changes to liquid on cooling.

2) Liquid: has definite volume but not shape and changes to solid on cooling.

3) Solid: has definite shape and volume and changes to liquid on heating.

its not a choice. you dont choose if you want to be gay or straight.
