Open in App
Solution

Sublimation: The process in which a substance directly goes into a vapor state without passing through the liquid state.

  • When solid iodine crystals are heated the iodine changes from a solid directly to a gas without passing through a liquid phase.
  • Hence iodine undergoes sublimation.
  • Example: IodineI, camphor, naphthalene, etc.

Iodine is a sublimable substance.
