Sublime at room temperature means a substance changes directly from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid phase. This process is called sublimation.

When will a solid on earths surface sublime at room temp?

A solid on Earth's surface will sublime at room temperature if it has a vapor pressure that exceeds atmospheric pressure at that temperature. This phenomenon typically occurs in certain substances, such as dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and iodine, which transition directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. Sublimation is more likely to happen in low-pressure environments or with solids that have weak intermolecular forces.


When will a solid on Earth's surface sublime at room temperature?

A solid on Earth's surface will sublime at room temperature if it has a vapor pressure greater than atmospheric pressure at that temperature. Common examples include substances like dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) and iodine, which can transition directly from solid to gas without becoming liquid under normal atmospheric conditions. Sublimation is more likely to occur in solids with weak intermolecular forces, allowing them to escape into the gas phase more readily.

What does solid at room temperature mean?

A substance that is solid at room temperature maintains a consistent shape and volume. It does not flow or change its state easily under normal conditions. Examples of solids at room temperature include metals, ceramics, and most minerals.

Can ammonium chloride sublime from room temp?

Yes, ammonium chloride can sublime at room temperature. Sublimation is the process in which a substance transitions directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. Ammonium chloride has a relatively low sublimation temperature, allowing it to sublime easily at room temperature.

Chlorine and iodine at room temperature?

Chlorine is a greenish-yellow gas at room temperature, with a strong odor and is toxic to inhale. Iodine is a shiny, black solid at room temperature, with a distinct metallic luster. It can sublime directly from a solid to a gas.


Does Mercury sublime?

Yes, Mercury can sublime, or transition directly from a solid to a gas at certain conditions. Because of its low boiling point, Mercury can evaporate at room temperature, creating a vapor that is toxic to humans.

What does subline mean?

The definition of "subline" (a term relating to cellular biology) may be found at: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/subline I am answering here in case you meant "sublime" "Sublime" is a term in chemistry and physics referring to the process in which some materials, given appropriate conditions of temperature and pressure, can change phase directly from a solid to a gas (where most materials under most conditions must pass through the liquid phase when changing from a solid to a gas). Examples are Iodine, which can sublime at room temperature and pressure (note this refers to pure Iodine, not the solution you buy at the drug store), and ordinary water ice, which can sublime under some temperature and pressure conditions, including in a self-defrosting freezer.


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 element of periodic table can sublimate?

Iodine is a solid at atmospheric pressure and has a high enough vapor pressure at room temperature that it will tend to sublime if left exposed to the atmosphere long enough. If stored in an airtight container it will remain solid but the air above it will eventually become saturated with iodine vapor, taking on a violet tint. Note that the sublimation pressure at room temperature is substantially below atmospheric pressure (less than 10 Pa, i.e. less than 1 ten thousandth of an atmosphere) so although it will sublime at room temperature it does so gradually
