Iodine is an element that is a shiny grey solid and can be seen subliming slightly at RTP (Room Temperature and Pressure) into a purple-pink gas. Unless in solution, it is never a liquid.
Iodine is a solid at room temperature and pressure. It sublimes directly from a solid to a gas when heated without passing through a liquid phase.
iodine is a substance that has an unusual property, it has the ability to sublimate, this means that it converts directly from a solid to a gas with no liquid stage at all. So no, no iodine will "melt" into a liquid, it will insted turn into a purple gas.
The chemical equation for the sublimation of iodine solid to iodine gas is: I2(s) -> I2(g). This represents the process in which solid iodine directly transforms into iodine gas without going through a liquid phase.
The three states of iodine are solid, liquid, and gas. At room temperature, iodine is a solid with a dark purple color. When heated, it sublimes directly from a solid to a purple-violet gas.

Iodine is a solid at room temperature. It sublimes directly from solid to gas without melting.
Iodine does not go through a liquid when changing phase. Carbon dioxide does not go through liquid phase. Both iodine and carbon dioxide sublime from a solid to a gas and condense from the gas to a solid.
Iodine I2
Sublimation is the process where a substance changes directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. In the case of iodine, when it is heated, it transforms from a solid to a purple gas without forming a liquid.
Elemental iodine is a solid. But it is a volatile solid in that chemists will use solid iodine in a chamber to "iodine stain" substances in thin layer chromatography. Thus iodine is like having a volatile solid.
At room temperature iodine is a solid halogen.
Iodine is a nonmetal but it can be found in solid forms. Iodine experiences sublimation which is the transition from solid to gas, therefore it skips the liquid form.
