Question

Sublimation is the process of conversion of matter from state directly to state without passing through the liquid state.

• A. solid
• B. liquid
• C. gaseous
• D. fluid

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (C)

The correct options are
A solid
C gaseous

During sublimation, matter changes from solid state to directly gaseous state without passing through the liquid state. For example, odonil, dry ice and iodine undergo sublimation.
Whereas deposition is the reverse of sublimation i.e. change of state of matter from gaseous state to directly solid state without passing through the liquid state. Sublimation occurs on heating, while depostion occurs on cooling.
