Deposition of iodine is a physical change. It involves the transition of iodine from a gas directly to a solid without passing through the liquid phase, which is a process called sublimation in reverse. Since the chemical identity of iodine remains unchanged during this process, it does not involve any chemical reactions or the formation of new substances.
I2 is the chemical formula for iodine. It is a diatomic solid.
- Sublimation don't change the molecule; solid iodine or sublimated iodine are iodine. - Slaking of lime transform the calcium oxide in calcium hydroxide. A chemical change occur.
In order for something to be considered a change some sort of change must occur. A crystal is an object, not a type of change. Dark violet iodine crystals are pieces of relatively pure elemental iodine.
Sulfur.
Sublimation of iodine to iodine vapor is a physical change. It is a phase transition in which a substance goes directly from a solid to a gas without changing its chemical composition.
Iodine melting is a physical change, as it does not alter the chemical composition of the iodine. It simply changes from a solid to a liquid state due to the input of heat energy.
Iodine itself is a chemical element with a physical property, as it is a solid at room temperature and has a distinctive purple color. Its chemical properties involve its reactivity with other elements and compounds in chemical reactions.
Mixing bread with iodine solution to observe a color change is a physical change as it does not alter the chemical composition of the bread or the iodine solution. The color change occurs due to a physical interaction between the starch in the bread and the iodine molecules.
The transformation of black crystals of iodine into purple vapor of iodine is a physical change. This is because the change does not involve a change in the chemical composition of iodine; it only involves a change in the physical state from solid to gas.
When iodine dissolves in alcohol, it is a physical change because no new substances are formed. The iodine molecules are simply dispersed in the alcohol solution, but the chemical properties of iodine and alcohol remain the same.
Chemical Change
This is a physical process.
It is a physical change (sublimation).
Mixing sugar with iodine solution is a physical change because no new substances are formed. The sugar and iodine solution retain their individual chemical properties even when mixed together.
Sublimation of iodine (solid to gas without passing through liquid phase) is a physical change because the chemical composition of iodine remains the same during the process. The intermolecular forces between iodine molecules are overcome at certain temperature and pressure conditions, causing the solid iodine to directly convert into a gas.
Yes, the sublimation of iodine is a physical change, not a chemical change. Sublimation is the process by which a substance transitions from a solid directly to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. The chemical composition of iodine remains the same during sublimation.
