Question

What is sublimation? What kind of organic compounds can be purified by this technique?

Answer 1

Sublimation is a technique used by chemists to purify compounds. A solid is typically placed in a sublimationapparatus and heated under vacuum. Under this reduced pressure, the solid volatilizes and condenses as a purified compound on a cooled surface (cold finger), leaving a non-volatile residue of impurities behind.

i hope this is define vey well
