replied on: 4/16/2005 2:34:06 PM The point is that wood would melt and then evaporate however before that happen the wood burn so it doesn't have time. "matter consists of 3 states: solid, liquid,gas. logically all solids can be changed to liquid and then to gas" That is not 100% accurate some object sublime (such as graphite) which means that it turns directly from a solid into a gas. www.s8.invisionfree.com/the_quantum_factor/ <-- My forum, this forum id unfortunately dead. |

replied on: 6/5/2005 12:14:12 AM I dont spell well but we forgot, plasma, He stage 2, superconductors, super thermal conductors, bose instine condensate and a fiew others all states of matter. not all matter goes through all thoes stages like dri ice skips liquid state without pressure. and the onnly ellement known to turn into helium 2 is He. Wood is made of cellulose and would turn into a liquid if under enuf pressure and heat. But this would break the bonds of the cellulose mols and no longer be wood. |
