Note the white purified camphor on the cold finger, and the dark-brown crude product. Dark green crystals of nickelocene , freshly sublimed on the cold finger of the sublimation apparatus. A typical sublimation apparatus separates a mix of appropriate solid materials in a vessel in which it applies heat under a controllable atmosphere (air ...
Dark green crystals of nickelocene, sublimed and freshly deposited on a cold finger Sublimation of iodine. Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas state, without passing through the liquid state. [1] The verb form of sublimation is sublime, or less preferably, sublimate. [2]
Again, the molecules do not go through an intermediate liquid state when going from the gas to the solid. See also physical vapor deposition, which is a class of processes used to deposit thin films of various materials onto various surfaces. Deposition releases energy and is an exothermic phase change.
Snowflakes, and snow in general, are actually able to make the world around them quiet too. The science of silent snowflakes: The most common type of snowflake, called a dendrite, has six "arms ...
The sublimated material collects (5) on the cold finger proper, cooled by a coolant (blue) circulated through ports 1 and 2. A cold finger is a piece of laboratory equipment that is used to generate a localized cold surface. It is named for its resemblance to a finger and is a type of cold trap. The device usually consists of a chamber that a ...

A blue-ice area in the Miller Range with a meteorite. A blue-ice area is an ice-covered area of Antarctica where wind-driven snow transport and sublimation result in net mass loss from the ice surface in the absence of melting, forming a blue surface that contrasts with the more common white Antarctic surface.
The combination of density and low viscosity makes fresh layers of graupel unstable on slopes, and layers of 20–30 cm (8–12 in) or higher present a high risk of dangerous slab avalanches. In addition, thinner layers of graupel falling at low temperatures can act as ball bearings below subsequent falls of more naturally stable snow ...
