What is sublimation ? Give name of sublimation substances.

Option A

Option B

Option C

Option D

Solution

There are certain substances which normally pass from the solid to the vapour state directly and vice versa.

The change from solid state to vapour state without passing through the liquid state is called sublimation, and the substance is said to sublime.

Dry ice (solid $\mathrm{CO}_{2}$ ) sublimes, so also iodine.

During the sublimation process both the solid and vapour states of a substance coexist in thermal equilibrium.

A child running a temperature of $101\,^{\circ} F$ is given an antipyrin (i.e. a medicine that lowers fever) which causes an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to $98\,^{\circ} F$ in $20$ minutes, what is the average rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug (in $g/min$). Assume the evaporation mechanism to be the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is $30\; kg$. The spectfic heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water, and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about $580\; cal \;g^{-1}$.
