Answer

Iodine is an element that is a shiny grey solid and can be seen subliming slightly at RTP (Room Temperature and Pressure) into a purple-pink gas. Unless in solution, it is never a liquid.

Is iodine a solid lidquid or gas?

a iodine is a liquid <3


What are some substances that can change directly from gas to solid states?

Iodine does not go through a liquid when changing phase. Carbon dioxide does not go through liquid phase. Both iodine and carbon dioxide sublime from a solid to a gas and condense from the gas to a solid.


How does iodine crystal changes into vapours?

Iodine sublimes- i.e it changes from solid to gas without going though a liquid phase.


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


Why does iodine emit a purple gas when heated?

Because iodine sublimates, as do the other solid halogens. That means they go from solid to gas without becoming a liquid first.


What changes a solid to a gas or vapor without changing to a liquid?

Iodine I2


When iodine is heated does any iodine melt?

iodine is a substance that has an unusual property, it has the ability to sublimate, this means that it converts directly from a solid to a gas with no liquid stage at all. So no, no iodine will "melt" into a liquid, it will insted turn into a purple gas.


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.


Is Iodine a metal or nonmetal?

Iodine is a nonmetal but it can be found in solid forms. Iodine experiences sublimation which is the transition from solid to gas, therefore it skips the liquid form.


Why is liquid iodine not visible if crystals are heated in the open air?

Because Iodine, like Carbon dioxide, sublimes straight from a solid to a gas and does not have a liquid phase.


Iodine liquid or solid?

Solid.


How do you make solid to gas without getting in the liquid step?

It depends on the solid. For example, iodine changes from a solid to a gas, which is called sublimation. However, not all solids will sublime.
