Answer 2

Condensation is the change of the substance from liquid to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice. Vaporization is the change of substance from liquid to gas phase. Example of this is the boiling of water. Deposition is the change of a substance from gas to solid phase. Example of this is the formation of ice on a winter day. Sublimation is the change of a substance from solid to gas phase. Example of this is dry ice. The answer is letter C.
