The answer to your question is sublimation. I found this answer in my Chemistry book. It states:

"Mothballs, which contain the compounds naphthalene or p-dichlorobenzene also sublime, as do solid air fresheners."

What happen when the mothballs exposed under the sun?

Exposure to sunlight may cause mothballs to release their chemicals more quickly, resulting in faster evaporation. This can result in a stronger odor and potentially more rapid depletion of the mothballs. It is best to store mothballs in a cool, dark place to prolong their effectiveness.


What change in the form of water takes place in the process of evaporation?

In the process evaporation water changes from a liquid to a gas.


When a gas forms a liquid which process taking place?

Evaporation.


What process takes place if you place an ice cube on a table and leave it?

Its called evaporation


Does evaporation cannot take place in the dark?

Yes, evaporation can take place in the dark, in fact evaporation can take place any place and anytime. It is the factors in the environment that helps speed up the process evaporation. Heat, area of exposed surface and agitation (such as stirring). Therefore evaporation can still take place in dark but only slower.


Is it true that evaporation and condensation take place when water gains heat energy?

Evaporation is an endothermic process.Condensation is an exothermic process.


Can evaporation take place in the dark?

Yes, evaporation can take place in the dark. Evaporation is a physical process in which liquid water molecules at the surface gain enough energy to escape into the air as water vapor, regardless of the presence of light.


What change in the form of water takes takes place in the process of evaporation?

In evaporation, the surface of the water begins to change from a liquid to a gas.


Can you compare evaporation and condensation?

Evaporation is the process in which there is a change of state from liquid to gas. Condensation it is the process in which there is a change of state from gaseous to liquid or solid. Evaporation takes place from surfaces, all the time at all places Condensation can take place on surfaces, or at any place in a gas, though it is often aided by the presence of dust or other small particles. Evaporation absorbs energy. Condensation gives out energy.


What takes place when liquid absorbs energy and changes to a gas?

It be evaporation. ~answered by FightingLucario


What is the relationship between surface area and rate of evaporation?

Evaporation is a process that takes place at the surface of a liquid, therefore the rate of evaporation is directly related to the surface area. Twice as much surface area will give you twice as much evaporation.


What is the difference between crystallization and evaporation?

Crystallization -may be defined as a process which separates a pure solid in the from of its crystals from a solution. Evaporation - Process of separating any substance from its solution by removing water is called evaporation.
