In the process of sublimation, ____.
small crystals of ice become larger
ice changes directly into water vapor
ice melts to become liquid water, which then evaporates

fresh snow becomes firn and then glacial ice
a.small crystals of ice become larger
b.ice changes directly into water vapor
c.ice melts to become liquid water, which then evaporates
d.white ice becomes denser so that blue wavelengths are transmitted and scattered and the ice appears blue
e.fresh snow becomes firn and then glacial ice
Explanation / Answer
b. ice changes directly into water vapor
Sublimation is the process in which a substance directly changes from the solid to the gaseous phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase and vice-versa.
In the given case ice changes directly into water vapor and hence it sublimates.
