How will you show that, by applying pressure, particles of matter can be brought close together?

Show diagrammatically, the interconversion of the three states of matter.

What do you mean by fluidity?

Ice melts by absorbing heat. When it melts, its temperature remains the same. Where does the heat energy go?
