Pure Substances and State Changes Pure substances can change their state into solid , liquid , or gas (vapour) depending on the surrounding temperature and pressure. Examples of Elements by State (At Room Temperature) Solid: Iron (Fe), Gold (Au), Carbon (C), Copper (Cu). Liquid: Mercury (Hg), Bromine (Br). Gas/Vapour: Oxygen (O₂), Hydrogen (H₂), Nitrogen (N₂). Phase Changes of Elements Melting: Solid to liquid due to heating (e.g., melting iron). Freezing: Liquid to solid due to cooling (e.g., freezing liquid mercury below -39 °C). Evaporation: Liquid to gas/vapour (e.g., boiling liquid into gas). Condensation: Gas/vapour turning back into liquid as temperature drops. Sublimation: Solid directly to vapour without melting first (e.g., Iodine and dry ice). Explore Further Are you looking for a specific chemical element that easily demonstrates all three states?
