The change from solid sate to vapour state without passing through the liquid state is called………

A

Fusion

B

Regulation

C

vaporation

D

sublimation

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The change from solid state to vapour state without passing through the liquid state is called sublimation and the substance is said to sublime e.g.dry ice (solid `CO_(2)`), iodine etc.

  • The conversion of a solid into vapours without passing through the liquid state is called :

    A
    vaporisation
    B
    fusion
    C
    sublimation
    D
    freezing
  • Assertion : In sublimation, a substance changes directly from solid to vapour without passing through liquid state and vice-versa. Reason : Distillation involves two processes i.e., vapourisation and condensation.

    A
    If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
    B
    If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
    C
    If assertion is true but reason is false.
    D
    If both assertion and reason are false.
