Sublimation occurs when a substance transitions directly from its solid state to its gaseous state without passing through the liquid state.
The direct change of state from solid to gas is called sublimation.
The boiling point marks the temperature at which the transition from liquid to gas occurs, signifying that the liquid has acquired enough thermal energy for its particles to escape into the gas phase.
