Answer:

Condensation

Step-by-step explanation:

Matter can be broadly classified into three states:

-Solid

-liquid

-gas

In the solid state, molecules are held by very strong intermolecular forces which decrease in the liquid and further lowered in the gaseous state. Therefore, solids are the most condensed state followed by the liquid and finally the gas phase.

-Boiling and evaporation involve phase change from liquid to gas i.e. more condensed to less condensed

- Melting involves phase change from solid to liquid i.e. more condensed to less condensed

- Condensation involves phase change from gas to liquid i.e. less condensed to more condensed
