Changes of state involve a shift in physical characteristics, such as volume and mass.
During the melting of ice, the volume decreases.
The next physical characteristic to consider is mass.
🧊 During a change of state, the mass of a substance remains constant.
🌡️ The temperature remains constant during a change of state.
⚗️ Each change of state has a corresponding name.
🔆 The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas.
🌡️ The changes of state include fusion, vaporization, liquefaction, condensation, and sublimation.
✨ Understanding the different changes of state helps in comprehending the behavior of matter.
