The correct Answer is:
To determine the type of change that occurs when camphor is heated and changes into vapor, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Initial State**: - Camphor is initially in a solid state. 2. **Heating Process**: - When camphor is heated, it undergoes a transformation. 3. **Change of State**: - The solid camphor changes directly into vapor without passing through a liquid state. This process is known as sublimation. 4. **Reversibility of the Process**: - The change is reversible; if the vapor is cooled, it can condense back into solid camphor. 5. **Classification of the Change**: - Since only the physical state of camphor is changing (from solid to gas), and it can revert back to its original state, this is classified as a physical change. 6. **Final Conclusion**: - Therefore, the type of change that camphor undergoes when heated is a physical change, and it is reversible. ### Final Answer: The correct answer is that the change is a **physical change**. ---

Changing of camphor directly from solid into vapour form.

A solid material is supplied with heat at a constant rate. The temperature of the material is changing with heat input as shown (i) AB: change of state from solid to liquid. CD: change of state from liquid to vapour (ii) When CD=2AB , i.e., latent heat of vapourization is twice the latent heat of fusion of the substance. (iii) The reciprocal of slope of DE represents the heat capacity of vapour state of substance . (iv) If slope of OAgt slope of BC, i.e., specific heat of liquid state is greater than specific heat that of solid state.
