Iodine sublimes (i.e., goes from a solid to a gas) at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. However, it will exist as a solid for a very long time if it is kept in a closed container. As the iodine solid sublimes, the pressure will increase slightly within the closed container which will cause the iodine gas to reach an equillibrium state with the solid iodine (i.e., there will not be an increase in the amount of iodine gas in the container).

Can iodine ever be in the liquid state or it just sublimes on heating?
Iodine can exist as a solid, liquid, or gas. Its normally solid at STP, but with slow heating you can get it into its liquid form. It sublimes, so the heat must be well controlled. After he pours liquid bromine, this person then shows some liquid iodine.
How does iodine crystal changes into vapours?
Iodine sublimes- i.e it changes from solid to gas without going though a liquid phase.
How do halogen molecules exist?
Halogens are considered to be diatomic molecules. They exist in gas (F2, Cl2), liquid (Br2) and solid phase (Iodine I2).
The chemical equation of iodine solid to gas?
Solid lithium iodide decomposes into solid lithium and iodine gas.
Is iodine a solid lidquid or gas?
a iodine is a liquid <3
What state is iodine at room temperature?
Iodine is a solid when at 25 degrees centigrade (room temperature)
Matter can exist in this state or as a liquid or gas?
Solid state

What state can water exist as?
water can be a solid liquid or a gas.

What is iodine vapour?
A "vapor" in chemistry is always the gas phase of a substance that is more familiar in one of its condensed phases: liquid or solid. Therefore, iodine vapor is the gas phase of the element iodine, and has the same molecular composition as the solid, I2. Iodine is a solid at standard temperature and pressure, but sublimes directly to gas phase, without any intermediate liquid phase, at only moderately higher temperatures than the standard.
What is the usual state of matter that iodine is found in?
Iodine is naturally found in solid form.
What is Iodine's physical state at 98 degrees C?
The melting point of iodine is 113 oC and the boiling point is 184o C So at 150 oC it will be a liquid
Does iodine create a gas when heated?
YES. it goes directly from the solid, crystalline state to a gas. This process is called sublimation.
