At the same time, some of the water molecules from the gas condense back into the liquid. The transition from one phase to the other depends on temperature and pressure. Above a critical ...

The liquid-liquid phase transition When pure water is cooled to -38°C, it remains in liquid form despite passing its freezing point at 0°C. This is known as a supercooled state.

Deposition occurs when a gas transforms directly into a solid, without going through the liquid phase. Water vapor becomes ice or frost when the air touching a solid, such as a blade of grass ...

like a liquid, to another, like a gas. "The structure of the brain at the cellular level appears to be near a phase transition," said Northwestern's Helen Ansell, the first author of a paper about ...

Now that the chain-melt phase of potassium is confirmed, it joins the known array of other unusual states of matter beyond gas, liquid, and solid. Plasma: A superheated form of gas in which atomic ...
