Naphthalene sublimes due to its relatively low melting and boiling points, allowing it to transition directly from a solid to a gas when heated. This process occurs because the intermolecular forces in naphthalene are weak enough to let the molecules escape into the vapor phase without first becoming a liquid. Sublimation is facilitated at room temperature, which is why naphthalene is often found in mothballs, where it gradually releases vapor to repel insects.
What else can I help you with?
What is color of NH4Cl sublimates?
NH4Cl sublimes as white fumes.
Why mothballs turn small?
Mothballs turn small because they are made of a volatile chemical compound, such as naphthalene or paradichlorobenzene, that sublimes into a gas at room temperature. As the compound sublimes, it changes from a solid state directly to a gas, causing the mothballs to shrink over time.
What happens when you add dry ice to warm water?
There will be fake fog as it sublimes
What is sublimation and give an example of a substance that sublimes?
If zinc chloride is heated strongly the solid will sublime.
At what temperature does graphite melt at?
Graphite does not have a distinct melting point like other materials, as it sublimes directly from a solid to a gas. At atmospheric pressure, graphite sublimes around 3,600 degrees Celsius.
What colour does irondine go when it sublimes?
Irondine sublimes from a purple solid to a green gas.
What occurs when substance sublimes?
Evaporates (;
Why napthalene sublimes?
That makes no sense
What do particles of a solid do when the solid sublimes?
Sublimation is the conversion from solid directly to gas, so the particles of a solid that sublimes would change into a gas.
What metal sublimes in room temperature?
sodium
Does carbon disulphide sublimes?
it likes bawls
Which of the element is sublimes on heating?
One example of an element that sublimes on heating is iodine. When solid iodine is heated, it directly changes into a gas without passing through a liquid phase.
What happens when a solid sublimes?
When ice sublimes, the molecules at the edge of the ice escape into the gas phase as water vapor. The solid phase thus turns directly into the gas phase without an intermediary liquid phase. Ice sublimes quite slowly under normal conditions, but dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) sublimes readily at everyday temperatures and pressures.
Which halogen sublimes to violet vapours?
