Sublimation is the process where a solid turns directly into a gas without passing through the liquid phase. Iodine: Sublimes at about 113.7°C, releasing purple vapors. Naphthalene: Sublimes at around 80°C, commonly used in mothballs. Camphor: Sublimes at approximately 175°C, used in medicinal and aromatic applications. All three substances can undergo sublimation upon heating, making the correct answer "All of them."
