Deposition (chemistry)

ID: deposition-chemistry

In chemistry, deposition refers to the process by which a substance transitions from a gas directly to a solid, bypassing the liquid state. This phase transition is the reverse of sublimation, where a solid becomes a gas without passing through the liquid phase. Deposition typically occurs under specific conditions of temperature and pressure, usually at low temperatures and high pressures. It is an important process in various natural phenomena and industrial applications.
