The term for a gas turning into a solid is 'deposition'.  Almost any solid can turn into a gas if sufficient heat I applied.  Only those solids that actually disintegrate into atoms before reaching the gaseous phase cannot be converted this way.

The process in which solid turns into liquid without passing through the liquid phase is called sublimation. The example of sublimation is dry ice at room temperature. This reaction also has a reverse reaction and called deposition. Deposition is a process in which gas changes into solid without passing through liquid phase. It is an exothermic reaction because energy of gas atoms is greater than the energy of solid atoms. The example of deposition is frost formation. Moreover, disposition is also known as desublimation or reverse of sublimation.

Effervescence is a process involved in the condensation of liquid mass.  Effervescence is the escape of gas from an aqueous solution and the foaming or fizzing that results from a release of the gas. An everyday example is seen in carbonated beverages  such as soft drinks. The visible bubbles are produced by effervescence from the dissolved gas (which itself is not visible in the liquid solution).In the lab, a common example of effervescence is seen if hydrochloric acid is added to a block of limestone. If a few pieces of marble or an antacid tablet are put in hydrochloric acid in a test tube fitted with a cork, effervescence of carbon dioxide can be witnessed.This process is generally represented by the following reaction, where a pressurized dilute solution of carbonic acid in water releases gaseous carbon dioxide at decompression:It seems funny to me to think that the creation of new life as well as the dissolution of life each occur utilizing this process of chemical decomposition; and that the process of disintegration of mass contains within it's most refined mechanism the processes of both decomposition and evaporation.   These processes themselves cause neutrons and protons to move together, colliding with eachother to form a new mass at the molecular levels and BANG!  Life Anew begins to spin into it's own velocity within the elements of space.  Undefeated

This should follow the Effervescence topic with regard to Velocity (vortexean) and mass composition:

Remember, all solids have their effervescent counter part. All that our planet is made of was once nebulous clouds in the ethearean firmament. As our planet traveled in its galactic roadway, the earth's vortexean field (gravity mechanism) pulled this space material to its center and layer by layer built the outer structures of this world by condensing these gasses, into solid form.

There two ways since the question was left a bit open.

Literally the best answer to your question is the process known as Sublimation

The best compound that displays this naturally is Carbon Dioxide which when bought commercially in blocks do not go through a liquid change of state, rather it transitions from a solid directly to a solid to a gas. But...you want to know how a gas turns into a solid the reverse of the process just described with carbon dioxide.

The process can be observed in the lab, when certain crystalline compounds are heated and placed into a vapor state and then placed in touch with a surface that is above. When you heat the solid it will assume a vapor state and then it will deposit itself, much purer (the materials that do not sublime are left behind(impurities usually)) than before. When the deposits itself on the plate above it will be in a pure solid but  crystalline state. This is the real use for the process you want described.

One other way to achieve this is to go through all two phase changes which assumes that the vapor is condensed to a liquid and then frozen to a solid. I do not believe this is what you want since you have a liquid state that is involved. The answer is Sublimation period.

The process in which the gas is changed into a solid is known as condensation process. During the condensation process the atoms of gas come closer to each other when pressure is applied and the velocities of the atoms are also decreased. When the atoms come closer then they start losing their energy and finally they form solid. During this process, the overall energy of the atoms is decreased and their arrangement in this matter form is also changed.

Amber 22...Read Below regarding Effervesance

Then add this:

When a gas is converted into a solid, it is called condensation. The gas has no particular shape and volume. Whereas, a solid has a fixed volume and a shape. When gas turns up into a solid, an amount of energy is released because the energy of solid particles is less than gas particles. So, this is an exothermic reaction. Gas first converts into liquid and then this liquid is converted into a solid during condensation. There are some substances which are directly converted into solids without passing through the liquid phase. These substances are called sublime substances and phase transition is called decomposition or desublimation.

Condensation is the phase of gas to liquid.
Deposition is the correct name.

Amber, you are very correct. Also at the atomic level all things are constantly passing through each other and the various phases of Deposition. At this level even liquid has within it a solid configuration based on the particles trapped in the ice crystals. Example, a snowflake.

Condensation is the from a gas to liquid state
deposition is the transformation of gas to solid

The process of conversion of gas in to solid is known as condensation. In fact taking the atoms of matter closer to each other is done through condensation. Secondly, it is not sublimation because sublimation is the process in which solid state is directly converted in to gaseous state without passing through the liquid state.

CO2 does.  It becomes dry ice....I hope that is what you are asking.

It's called a phase change or state change, but it usually passes first through the liquid state. Gas to liquid is condensing, liquid to solid is freezing.
