Question

Sublimation of a mixture of common salt and ammonium chloride

Answer 1

Answer:

The mixture of common salt i.e . Sodium chloride and ammonium chloride can be seperated by the process of sublimation .

Explanation:

Ammonium chloride being a sublimable substance sublimes on heating but sodium chloride being non -sublimable remains in the mixture and hence can be separated out seperately.

Sublimation is the process of conversion of a substance directly into gaseous state on room temperature or on heating without undergoing into liquid state.

Answer 2

Answer: Ammonium chloride can be separated from common salt that is sodium chloride by the process of sublimation.

Ammonium chloride is sublimable and sodium chloride is non - sublimable

The reason why ammonium chloride is sublimable is that when we heat it, it sublimes.
