The change from the liquid to the solid state of matter.
Melting
The change from a solid to a liquid.
Evaporation
The process that occurs when vaporization takes place only on the surface of a liquid.
Sublimation
The change in state from a solid directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state.
Boiling Point

Melting Point
Melting that occurs at a specific temperature.
Vaporization
The change of state from a liquid to a gas.
Boiling
The process that occurs when vaporization takes place inside a liquid as well as on the surface.
