उत्तर
Sublimation method is used to separate a mixture of camphor and sand. Camphor is a volatile solid and can be separated from any other non-volatile substance by heating. Sand is a non-volatile substance. When a mixture of sand and camphor is heated, sand will remain in the container but camphor will vaporise. These vapours are collected and condensed on a cold surface.
