When matter loses heat, one of the following happens:
Liquid changes to solid (freezing), or
Gas changes to liquid (condensation), or
Gas changes to solid (deposition)
1- Freezing: when the temperature of a liquid matter drops below its freezing point, the liquid usually solidifies forming crystals. Example of this is when water changes to ice
2- Condensation: when the temperature of gas is reduced, the molecules slow down and come together changing the matter into liquid. Example of this is when water vapor condenses into water droplets.
3- Deposition: Sometimes when the temperature of a gas drops, it solidifies directly without passing through the liquid phase. An example of this is when water vapor changes directly to ice in sub-freezing areas without passing through the liquid phase. This is the process through which clouds are formed.
The diagram below shows these three changes in matter.

Hi, you have not provided structure of the aldehyde and alkoxide ion.
Therefore i'll show a mechanism corresponding to the proton transfer by considering a simple example.
Explanation: For an example, let's consider that proton transfer is taking place between a simple aldehyde e.g. acetaldehyde and a simple alkoxide base e.g. methoxide.
The hydrogen atom attached to the carbon atom adjacent to aldehyde group are most acidic. Hence they are removed by alkoxide preferably.
After removal of proton from aldehyde, a carbanion is generated. As it is a conjugated carbanion therefore the negative charge on carbon atom can conjugate through the carbonyl group to form an enolate which is another canonical form of the carbanion.
All the structures are shown below.
