Sublimation is the process by which a solid substance directly turns into a gas without going through the liquid phase.
Sublimation is different from evaporation because it involves the direct transformation of a solid into a gas, while evaporation involves the transformation of a liquid into a gas.
No, not all solid substances can undergo sublimation. It depends on the specific chemical and physical properties of the substance.
Yes, sublimation can occur at room temperature for certain substances, such as dry ice (solid carbon dioxide).
Sublimation is important in scientific research because it is a useful method for purifying substances, separating mixtures, and studying the properties of different substances. It also has practical applications, such as in freeze-drying and air fresheners.
