Interpretation : The state of matter that is not part of the process of sublimation is to be identified.
Concept Introduction : Matter is composed of mass and space. The three physical states of matter are classified based on particle arrangement and intermolecular forces:
Answer to Problem 121A
Liquid state is not a part in the process of sublimation.
Explanation of Solution
Solid, liquid and gaseous states are the three states of matter.
Sublimation is the process by which a substance transforms from a solid to a vapour without first entering the liquid state.
Solids can sublimate because they have a vapour pressure just like liquids do.
Solids that have a vapour pressure greater than atmospheric pressure at or close to room temperature sublimate.
So, the liquid state does not involve sublimation.
The state of matter that is not a part of sublimation is the liquid state.
