. Enthalpy of sublimation of a substance is equivalent to (I) enthalpy of combination + enthalpy of vapourisation (ii) enthalpy of combination (iii) enthalpy of vapourisation (iv) double the enthalpy of vapourisation

solution:

 

Choice (I) is the appropriate response.

Enthalpy of sublimation of a substance is equivalent to enthalpy of combination + enthalpy of vapourisation.

 

Sublimation is immediate change of strong to fume, i.e., strong → fume

 

Writing in two stages, we have strong → fluid → fume.

 

Strong → fluid requires enthalpy of combination.

 

Fluid →vapour requires enthalpy of vapourisation
