The only requirement is that the solid must have a slight vapor pressure under the applied conditions. Sublimation happens below triple point pressure.
The compound in the mixture that is the sublimate would be whatever compound has passed directly from the solid to the gas phase without entering the liquid phase in between.
Iodine is the halogen that is commonly purified by sublimation. When iodine is heated, it directly changes from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase, allowing impurities to be left behind in the solid form.
Purification by sublimation is applicable when the compound of interest has a much lower or higher vapor pressure compared to the impurities, allowing for selective purification by converting the compound directly from solid to vapor state and back to solid without passing through the liquid phase. This method is effective for separating volatile compounds from non-volatile impurities or vice versa, and is commonly used in industries such as pharmaceuticals and semiconductors for purifying substances.
A good recrystallization solvent should have the following characteristics: high solubility for the compound being purified at high temperatures, low solubility at low temperatures to allow for crystal formation, non-reactive with the compound, and easily removable from the crystals after recrystallization.
Sublimation apparatus is a piece of laboratory glassware used in the technique of sublimation usually used by chemists to purifycompounds. Typically a solid is placed in a vessel which is then heated under vacuum. Under this reduced pressure the solid volatilizes and condenses as a purified compound on a cooled surface, leaving the non-volatile residue impurities behind. This cooled surface often take the form of a cold finger. Once heating ceases and the vacuum is released, the sublimed compound can be collected from the cooled surface.
A solid can be purified through techniques such as recrystallization, distillation, sublimation, or chromatography. These methods involve separating impurities from the desired compound based on differences in properties like solubility, boiling point, or affinity for a stationary phase.

Because salt doesn't sublime !

Common salt, or sodium chloride, cannot be purified by sublimation because it has a high melting point (801°C) and does not sublime at normal temperatures and pressures. Sublimation is the process of a substance transitioning directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase, which is not applicable to sodium chloride.
Purified water is a compound because it is a substance composed of two or more different elements chemically bonded together. In the case of water, it is composed of hydrogen and oxygen atoms bonded together to form the compound H2O.
Camphor is a molecular compound, with a molecular formula C10H16O. Because it is molecular and the solid is "held together" by inter-molecular forces it has a lower melting point 175 C and boling point 204C than sodium chloride mp 800+C. bp 1400+ C. Under gentle heating solid camphor has a a reasonable vapor pressure and sublimes (no melting or boiling required -as it is flammable care is needed.) Sodium chloride a giant ionic lattice held together by strong electrostatic bonds when under heated gently has virtually no vapor pressure and does not sublime.

Sodium chloride is not purified by sublimation.
i think purified water is not a mixture because even when water is purified it still has two hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom so it still remains a compound
