Answer 2

Heating camphor results in sublimation

Explanation:

• When we heat camphor, it does not melt or becomes its liquid form, it gets converted into gas.
• This process by which a substance directly converts into its vapor state without changing into liquid state is called sublimation.
• Therefore all camphor evaporates directly into vapor state leaving no residue behind. Although if a mixture of camphor and salt is taken, then non volatile salt is left behind while camphor sublimes.  
• Camphor is an organic compound. This has been used in medicine and for incense .
