  • Exothermic Phase Changes: Understanding Heat Release During Transitions
    The phase changes that involve the release of heat are exothermic processes. These are:

    * Freezing: Liquid to solid (e.g., water to ice)

    * Condensation: Gas to liquid (e.g., water vapor to water droplets)

    * Deposition: Gas to solid (e.g., water vapor to frost)

    In these phase changes, the molecules slow down and become more ordered, releasing energy in the form of heat.
