2. Physical change - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_change

   Physical changes occur when objects or substances undergo a change that does not change their chemical composition. This contrasts with the concept of chemical change in which the composition of a substance changes or one or more substances combine or break up to form new substances. In general a physical change is reversible using physical ...

3. Phase transition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_transition

   In physics, chemistry, and other related fields like biology, a phase transition (or phase change) is the physical process of transition between one state of a medium and another. Commonly the term is used to refer to changes among the basic states of matter : solid , liquid , and gas , and in rare cases, plasma .

4. State of matter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

   State of matter. In physics, a state of matter is one of the distinct forms in which matter can exist. Four states of matter are observable in everyday life: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Many intermediate states are known to exist, such as liquid crystal, and some states only exist under extreme conditions, such as Bose–Einstein ...

5. List of states of matter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_states_of_matter

   List of states of matter. Matter organizes into various phases or states of matter depending on its constituents and external factors like pressure and temperature. In common temperatures and pressures, atoms form the three classical states of matter: solid, liquid and gas. Complex molecules can also form various mesophases such as liquid ...

6. Bose–Einstein condensate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bose–Einstein_condensate

   In condensed matter physics, a Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter that is typically formed when a gas of bosons at very low densities is cooled to temperatures very close to absolute zero , i.e., 0 K (−273.15 °C; −459.67 °F).

7. Effects of climate change - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effects_of_climate_change

   Some climate change effects: wildfire caused by heat and dryness, bleached coral caused by ocean acidification and heating, environmental migration caused by desertification, and coastal flooding caused by storms and sea level rise. Effects of climate change are well documented and growing for Earth's natural environment and human societies. Changes to the climate system include an overall ...
