No, frost is not an example of sublimation. Frost forms through the process of deposition, where water vapor in the air transitions directly into solid ice crystals without becoming liquid first. Sublimation, on the other hand, is the process where a solid turns directly into a gas, such as ice turning into water vapor without melting.

What is an example of sublimation vapor to solid?

A vapor changing into a solid goes through a process called deposition. One example of this process is frost forming on leaves.


Solid changing into a gas?

sublimation. example dry ice


What is water vapor turning to frost is an example of?

condensation


Give you an examples of sublimation in science?

An example of sublimation in science is dry ice, which is solid carbon dioxide that changes directly into carbon dioxide gas when heated. Another example is the process of freeze drying, where water is removed from a substance by sublimation under low pressure and temperature conditions.


Solid condensation on a surface that is below 0C is known as?

Water vapour changing to solid on a surface is sublimation of the vapour. For water the product is referred to as rime or hoarfrost.


Can you provide examples of sublimation and deposition processes in nature?

Sublimation is when a substance transitions directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. An example of sublimation in nature is dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) turning into carbon dioxide gas. Deposition is the opposite process, where a gas transitions directly into a solid without becoming a liquid first. An example of deposition in nature is frost forming on a cold surface when water vapor in the air freezes directly onto it.


What do you call the process of a solid changing to a gas?

sublimation. for example when dry ice changes directly to a gas.


Can you turn a gas right into a solid?

Yes you can! Example: I2gas --> I2solid solid and vice verse: its called sublimation. Also water does this 'trick' (hoar-frost). Another example is carbon dioxide which can exist as a solid or gas under normal atmospheric pressure, but not as a liquid.

Is car freshener an example of sublimation?

Car fresheners are an example of sublimation because the freshener gives off a smell, which is really a gas, without becoming a liquid. (Sublimation is a solid changing directly to a gas with out going through the liquid phase)


Is a candle an example of sublimation?

No, a candle is not an example of sublimation. Sublimation is the process by which a substance transitions from a solid directly to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. Candles involve the solid wax melting into a liquid state and then being converted into gas through combustion.


What is the process of sublimtion?

The process in which a solid directly changes into vapours without getting into liquid phase is termed sublimation and such solids are termed sublime solids. Example: nephthalene, solid carbondioxide, iodine, etc.
