What does the size of naphthalene balls, put in open, keep on reducing with time?

Answer 1

Size of naphthalene balls, put in open, keep on reducing with time

          We have noticed if we keep naphthalene balls in the open and exposed to the air in the atmosphere the naphthalene balls keeps on reducing in size, the reduction of naphthalene balls is due to the change of state that occurs in the atmosphere.

          There is a process of sublimation that occurs where the naphthalene changes its state from solid to gas directly without changing to liquid in the middle. This is the reason why the naphthalene balls keeps reducing its size if we keep it exposed to the air and atmosphere.

Answer 2

Answer:

the size of naphthalene balls put in open keep on reducing with the time because solid can change their state in gaseous form
