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]

Rain, snow in the East on Thanksgiving, Black Friday A developing storm could bring a rainy and snowy holiday to the eastern half of the country, according to AccuWeather meteorologists .
The following processes have the corresponding results: smooth—deposition without wind; wavy—wind deposited snow; concave furrows—melt and sublimation; convex furrows—rain or melt; random furrows—erosion. Snow covered area (SCA) describes the extent of snow-covered ground, usually expressed as a fraction (%) of the total.
A messy spell of winter weather continued to dominate Thanksgiving forecasts, with a mix of rain and snow materializing in different areas across the United States. Storms could potentially impact ...
Snow can be compacted to form a snow road and be part of a winter road route for vehicles to access isolated communities or construction projects during the winter. [78] Snow can also be used to provide the supporting structure and surface for a runway, as with the Phoenix Airfield in Antarctica. The snow-compacted runway is designed to ...
