The video tutorial explains the concept of volatility, typically associated with liquids, under normal temperatures and pressures. It also highlights that some solids, like iodine, can be volatile and transition directly to vapor without becoming liquid, a process known as sublimation.

What is typically associated with volatility under normal conditions?

• Gases

• Liquids

• Metals

• Plasmas

Which of the following solids is mentioned as being volatile?

• Sulfur

• Carbon

• Iodine

• Iron

What is the term for a solid turning directly into vapor?

• Deposition

• Sublimation

• Evaporation

• Condensation

Which phase does a volatile solid skip when turning into vapor?

• Gas

• Liquid

• Solid

• Plasma

What is a common characteristic of volatile substances?

• They are always solid at room temperature.

• They easily turn into vapor.

• They have a high boiling point.

• They are non-reactive.
