1.

Enthalpy of sublimation of a substance is equal toA. enthalpy of fusion + enthalpy of vapourisationB. enthalpy of fusionC. enthalpy of vapourisationD. twice the enthalpy of vapourisation.

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`"Solid "overset("Sublimation")rarr "Vapour"`
This process occurs in two steps,
Step 1 : `"Solid" overset("Fusion")rarr"Liquid"`
Step 2 : `"Liquid" overset("Vaporisation")rarr "Vapour"`
Thus, Enthalpy of sublimation = Enthalpy of fusion `+` Enthalpy of vaporisation.
