1. Consider a system in which the solid sublimes to vapour.
e.g., I, (or) camphor.
2. When solid iodine is placed in a closed transparent vessel, after sometime, the vessel gets filled up with violet vapour due to sublimation of iodine.
3. Initially the intensity of the violet colour increases, after some time it decreases and finally it becomes constant as the following equilibrium is attained.
I2(s) ⇌ I2(g)
