  1. phase change

    A phase change, also known as a phase transition, is a transformation in the state of matter of a system, which can occur when the system's temperature, pressure, or other physical properties reach a certain critical value. This can involve transitions between solid, liquid, and gaseous states (such as melting, freezing, evaporation, condensation, sublimation, and deposition), as well as other transitions such as between different crystalline structures. During a phase change, the system's macroscopic properties may change dramatically as a result of changes in the arrangement or behavior of its microscopic components.
