Ice Squid Condensation? Ice Squid Evaporation? Or is the punchline that you changed the chemistry of the genie?
I don't get it.

It's solid -> liquid -> gas, but now replace all lithium (li) with sulfur (s). So spelling wise liquid becomes squid.
Wouldn't the first one be changed to sosd then? XD
Sounds like op was a little sosd when they came up with this post.
i'd hope that they were at least a little sosd because anything else tends to be rather unhealthy for humans...
What does this mean fr?
I haven't understood this year, maybe next year.
What is the total mass gain if all lithium(3) became sulfur(16)? How many planets would become stars overnight?
Per Wolfram Alpha, sulfur is 4.62 times heavier; the earth is 0.002% lithium, so it would experience a net gain of 3.62 * mass of earth * 0.00002, or 4.3e20kg. That's 7.24e-5 times heavier, so not much in the grand scheme of things.
Note that I'm neither a chemist, a physicist, or an astronomer, so I make no guarantee that I did this right.
Edit: misplaced decimal
4 zeros not 3. 0.00002
What is the total mass gain if all lithium(3) became sulfur(16)?
Related, there's a Kurzgesagt video on what happens if you turn the entire earth into gold: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VB_GWz25B3Q
You have to make assumptions on what you keep constant: mass? volume? density? Each scenario is amusing in its own apocalyptic way.
Probably none of them
That’s a bit deceiving :)
