Key Stage 3
Meaning
Subliming is when a liquid turns into a gas.
- Noun: Sublimation
- Verb: To sublime
- Present Participle: Subliming
About Subliming
- Only a few solids sublime. Frozen Carbon Dioxide will sublime which means it skips the liquid state.
- Sublimation is a reversible process. When a solid sublimes into a gas you can deposit that gas back into a solid.
- Heating a solid will cause it to sublime into a gas.
The particles in the solid vibrate faster until they are moving fast enough that they break the bonds holding the particles together. The particles become free to move anywhere which makes the state a gas. |
