Solution

The correct option is B Naphthalene
Sublimation is a specialized change of state when a solid substance skips the liquid phase and moves directly into the gas phase. This occurs because the substance absorbs energy so quickly from the surroundings that melting never occurs.
Naphthalene shows the sublimation.
