Solution

  1. Conversion of solid into vapor without passing through the liquid state is called sublimation.
  2. Example of sublimation (solid to gas)-Dry ice is a form of carbon dioxide that has been frozen. When dry ice is exposed to air, it immediately converts from a solid to a gaseous state, which appears as fog.

Therefore, sublimation is the change of solid-state directly to a vapor state without going through the liquid state.
