Refers to the process whereby at low pressures a solid changes directly into the vapor phase without passing through the liquid phase.

On a day when the barometer reads 75.23 cm, a reaction vessel holds 250 ml of ideal gas at 20 celsius. an oil manometer ( ρ= 810 kg/m^3) reads the pressure in the vessel to be 41 cm of oil and below atmospheric pressure. what volume will the gas occupy under s.t.p.?
