Water turns into water vapor as a sample is heated up. A while after, the sample is cooled and under a certain pressure, the vapor immediately turns into ice. Which phase changes occurred in this situation?

Condensation and sublimation

Evaporation and melting

Evaporation and deposition

Condensation and freezing

Lustrous iodine crystals when heated turn into violet vapor. What phase change is described and is this an endothermic or exothermic process?

Sublimation, endothermic

Sublimation, exothermic

Deposition, endothermic

Deposition, exothermic

A boy did an experiment to see how mothballs change phase overtime. He noticed that over time, the mothball just keeps getting smaller and smaller, without the mothball leaving any residue behind. What phase change can possibly be happening to the mothball?
