Q. A transition from the solid to gas phase with no intermediate liquid stage is called?
Answer: Sublimation
Notes: Sublimation is the process by which a substance transitions from a solid to a gas without passing through a liquid phase. This typically occurs when a substance is heated to a temperature at which its solid form becomes a gas, such as when dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) sublimates and turns into gas. Sublimation can also occur when a substance is exposed to a vacuum, which can cause gases to be drawn out of the substance and turn into a solid. Sublimation is an important process in many scientific and industrial fields, including meteorology, chemistry, and materials science. Camphor is also an example of Sublimation.
