Answer:

Calcium chloride

Step-by-step explanation:

Sublimation is the process whereby a solid substance is converted to gas when heat is applied. Solid normally gets converted to the liquid phase before reaching the gaseous phase but these substances gets converted from solid straight to gas

Solid—> Gas

Dry ice( solid CO2) and Ammonium chloride undergo sublimation while Calcium chloride doesn't.

Ammonium chloride
