What is the process of conversion of solid state directly to gaseous state called? A. Evaporation B. Condensation C. Sublimation D. Distillation

Evaporation
Condensation
Sublimation
Distillation

The correct answer is C. Sublimation.

Sublimation is the process of conversion of a solid directly into a gas without passing through the intermediate liquid state. It is a phase transition that occurs at temperatures and pressures below the triple point, at which the solid, liquid, and gas phases can coexist.

Evaporation is the process of a liquid changing into a gas or vapor. It is a surface phenomenon that occurs when molecules at the surface of a liquid have enough energy to escape the attraction of the other molecules and enter the gas phase.

Condensation is the process of a gas changing into a liquid. It is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when the gas molecules lose energy and are able to form bonds with each other.

Distillation is a process of separating a mixture of liquids by boiling them and then collecting the vapors. The vapors are then condensed back into liquids, and the liquids are collected separately.
