Question

During which process do ice and snow on Earth move directly from the solid
state into water vapor in the atmosphere?
) A. Percolation

B. Precipitation

C. Condensation

D. Sublimation

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is sublimation

Explanation:

Sublimation is a process by which a solid substance changes to its gaseous or vapour state without passing through the liquid phase.

- Ice and snow are solid forms of water

- water vapor is the gaseous form of water

Thus, Sublimation is said to have occurred in the atmosphere

Answer 2

Answer: Option D

Sublimation.

Explanation:

Sublimation is a transition phase in which solid substance is converted directly to gaseous state without the intermediate liquid phase. It is an exothermic reaction. It is during sublimation process that ice and snow in solid form move directly to water vapour(gaseous form) in the atmosphere.
