When burning camphor, you will observe a white flame and a distinct aromatic odor. Camphor sublimes, which means it transforms from a solid directly into a gas, without passing through a liquid phase.
Camphor is a crystalline substance.
Camphor "disappears" because it volatilizes and turns into a vapor.
The main elements in camphor are carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Its chemical formula is C10H16O.

In case of sublimation. Example burning of camphor or just vapourization of camphor
No. At least not inside. I was told by poison control after I had gotten carbon monoxide poisoning by burning a combination of store bought manufactured fire logs and real camphor wood. It was bad!
Yes, when camphor burns, it undergoes combustion and produces carbon dioxide (CO2) as one of the byproducts.

Though the camphor laurel is a nusicance (or worse) in a number of areas, it's smoke is toxic and it can leave a most unpleasant coating on the inside of your chimney. It probably isn't a good idea to burn this stuff. It's nasty. All the "stuff" in the laurel that allows the production of camphor from its leaves has to get up there, and the trunk (the part you're burning) has a good store of it in the wood. If it isn't against air quality standards in your area to burn the camphor laurel as firewood, it may very well be soon. Heck, they don't even burn it to eradicate it for the most part because of the environmental effects due to the smoke.

Camphor will sublime when heated mildly (sugar will not). Heat the mixture mildly, collect the sublimate separately, cool the sublimate to get camphor.
The mixture of camphor and sodium chloride can be separated by sublimation. Camphor can be sublimed by heating, leaving sodium chloride behind. The vaporized camphor can then be collected and allowed to solidify back into pure camphor.

what do i do if my dog ate camphor berries
Camphor oil is typically made by steam distilling the wood of the camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora). The process involves boiling the wood in water and collecting the steam that contains the volatile compounds of camphor. The steam is then cooled and condensed to extract the camphor oil.
