Best Answer

as we know that the room temperature is 25*C

which is very greater than the boiling point of the carbon dioxide

so it remain in the vapor state

but boiling point of the iodine is greater than the 25*C

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! :)


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.


What solid sublimes on heating?

Some solids are Carbon dioxide, Snow, Iodine and Naphthalene

What is a substance that changes directly from a solid to a gas on heating?

A famous example would be carbon dioxide (CO2). Changing from a solid to a gas is called sublimation and happens for most substances at certain temperatures and pressures. The substances that are known for subliming are the ones that do it at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.


What are some objects that sublimate?

Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase without passing through an intermediate liquid phase. Things that sublimate are ice, iodine, and carbon dioxide.
