solid iodine
Iodine can sublime, i.e. change directly from solid to gas, at normal room pressure as long as the pressure is right, the substance can sublime
Only some substances sublime because of pressure. Some solids have a high enough vapor pressure and triple point that makes them sublime in the air, which may be easier than evaporating.
Carbon dioxide (CO2), iodine (I2), "moth balls," which are mostly naphthalene (C10H8), and arsenic (As) at really high temperatures.
Iodine exists as I2. The crystal of iodine is formed simply by the interaction of iodine molecules as a result of Van de Waals forces, which allows for these molecules to bond together to form a solid.
Iodine is a solid because it has a larger mass number than fluorine. (Iodine=126.9 where as fluoine=19). This means that it will have more induced dipole-induced dipole attractions, compared to flourine. So more attractions need to be overcome in iodine than flourine, meaning there needs to be more energy to overcome the attractive forces. So there will be enough energy at room temperature to overcome the forces of attraction between flourine, making it a gas in nature. However there is not enough energy at room temperature to overcome the attractive forces between iodine, making it a solid at room temperature. Hope that answered your question.
Co2(s) will sublime
Iodine c:
Iodine when heated will sublime. Collect the sublimate and cool to get iodine (solid). However the mixture should not contain any other compound which will sublime.
On heating iodine and camphor directly converted into gases and no liquid state is appears in between this process because the intermolecular forces between the molecules in such types of solids is less than ordinary solids, therefore high energy molecules at solid surface over come the attractive forces and directly converted into vapours.
Vaporization of iodine occur after 113 oC.
heat the mixture iodine will sublime collect the iodine vapour separately and cool
Iodine(I)
solid iodine
Iodine, with formula I2.
Iodine is a chemical element, nonmeatal, halogenÈ™ it is solid at room temperature but can sublime easily.
Yes, mercury can sublime.
