What is the colour of vapours formed on sublimation of iodine solid?

Correct option is D

The correct answer is (d) Purple.
· When solid iodine undergoes sublimation, it transforms directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid phase. The vapors formed are purple in color.
Information Booster:
· Iodine is a halogen, and its solid form is greyish-black.
· Upon heating, iodine sublimes to form purple vapors, which is a characteristic property of iodine.
Additional Information:
· Sublimation is the process in which a substance transitions from the solid phase directly to the gas phase without passing through a liquid state, typical of substances like iodine and dry ice.
