Add your answer. This is kinda horrible, but: if people hang themselves...? and don't manage to break their neck, do blood vessels in their head burst? is the circulation cut off to and from their head and brain, so that the blood pressure increases in the head?
Lesson Summary. Sublimation is a type of phase transition, or a change in a state of matter, just like melting, freezing, and evaporation. Through sublimation, a substance changes from a solid to a gas without ever passing through a liquid phase. Dry ice, solid CO2, provides a common example of sublimation.
Sublimation is a chemical process where a solid turns into a gas without going through a liquid stage. An example of sublimiation is when ice cubes shrink in the freezer. The meaning of sublimation is causing something to change from solid to a gas, without becoming a liquid. An example of sublimation is when the cold and dry weather causes a snow bank to shrink.
