That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Sublimation is the phase transition in which a solid turns directly into a gas without first becoming a liquid. This process is observed under certain temperature and pressure conditions and is exemplified by dry ice, which is solid carbon dioxide that sublimates into carbon dioxide gas. Sublimation is a useful concept in various scientific fields, including meteorology, physics, and manufacturing.
