No, I would not call CO2 a sublime (unparalleled; supreme) substance, However, CO2 does sublimate (to change directly from a solid to a vapour or gas without first melting).

Do the sublime elements have liquid state?

No, the sublime elements do not have a liquid state. Sublimation is the process in which a substance transitions directly from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid phase. Examples of substances that sublime include dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and camphor.


What is sublimation and examples of substances that can sublime?

Sublimation is the process by which a substance transitions directly from a solid to a gas phase without passing through the liquid phase. This occurs when the substance's vapor pressure exceeds its triple point pressure. Examples of substances that can sublime include dry ice (solid carbon dioxide), camphor, and iodine.


Which substance will sublime at room temperature?

CO2(s) and I2(s) Carbon dioxide as a solid and iodine crystals as solids. These are the two most important sublimation compounds! When I say sublimation, you say CARBON DIOXIDE AND IODINE! :)


Can sodium carbonate sublime?

No, sodium carbonate does not sublime because it decomposes at high temperatures into sodium oxide and carbon dioxide gas rather than transitioning directly from a solid to a gas phase. Sublimation is the process where a substance goes from a solid directly to a gas without passing through a liquid phase.


Will sugar sublime?

No. Sugar is a solid. When heated, it will burn, but not sublime. (To sublime is to go from the solid state to the gaseous state with no liquid state in between. The most common thing that will sublime is solid carbon dioxide, which we know as "dry ice". It's a solid below about -109F, and sublimes into the gaseous state above that. Carbon dioxide has no liquid state at atmospheric pressure; it is only liquid below 0 degrees F at pressures above 60PSI.)
