Video Summary: Endothermic and Exothermic Phase Changes

The video explains that phase changes are physical changes where a substance transitions between states of matter, such as solid, liquid, or gas. These changes can be:

Endothermic, meaning they absorb heat from the surroundings, causing the surroundings to cool down.

Examples:

Melting (solid → liquid)

Vaporization (liquid → gas)

Sublimation (solid → gas)

Exothermic, meaning they release heat to the surroundings, causing the surroundings to warm up.

Examples:

Freezing (liquid → solid)

Condensation (gas → liquid)

Deposition (gas → solid)

To remember the difference:

Endothermic sounds like “into” – heat flows into the substance.

Exothermic sounds like “exit” – heat exits the substance.
