Liquefaction means turning into a liquid, and solidification means turning into a solid. The two terms are very close to being opposite in meaning. Although, of course, solid and liquid are not the only states of matter. Vaporization is the process of turning into a gas.

This is known as liquefaction. For more information on the causes of liquefaction please see the related question.
What happens during liquefaction?
Liquefaction is when a solid melts into a liquid or a gas becomes liquid. During earthquakes, soil can turn into a liquid.
What are four ways the earthquakes cause damage?
It is Tsunamis, Aftershocks, Liquefaction, and Shaking.
When the soil becomes more liquid?
liquefaction
What do you call a soild that turns into a liquid and then into a soild again?
WATER! If you put water in a cup and leave it in the freezer it will turn to an ice cube then if you leave it somewhere warm and cosy it will turn back to a liquid again. Try it for yourself even.
What is the difference between liquefaction and condensation?
liquefaction-change from solid to liquid state condensation-change from gas to liquid-just opposite of evaporation

Definition of melting point range?
The interval between the beginning of liquefaction and complete liquefaction
What is difference between condensation and liquefaction?
Liquefaction is a change to a liquid from either a solid or a gas; whereas condensation is a change only from gas to liquid. Liquefaction takes place at very low temperatures(eg-Air is liquefied at -200degrees c) whereas condensation does not need such low temperatures, it occurs when water vapor changes to droplets of water on a glass of water taken out of a fridge.
The change in a state of matter from a solid to a liquid?
This type of change is called condensation or liquefaction.
What is Rapid solidification?
rapid solidification is when somthing turns into a solid very quickly
What do you mean by liquefaction. Discuss different ways by which liquefaction of gases can be achieved?
Liquefaction is the process of liquefying or making liquid.(as told by dictionary.) Liquefaction is the process where soil loses strength and acts like a liquid instead of a solid.The modern methods of cooling the gas to or below their Tc and hence of liquefaction of gases are done by Linde's method and Claude's method.
How can homes and other structers be protected from liquefaction?
Homes and other structures can be protected from liquefaction by being anchored to a rock below the soil. Liquefaction happens when structures are built on soft ground.
