Can metal oxide sublime

Metal oxides generally do not sublime under normal conditions; they typically decompose or melt when heated rather than transitioning directly from solid to gas. Sublimation is more characteristic of certain molecular compounds and specific elements, particularly those with weaker intermolecular forces. However, some metal oxides can exhibit vaporization at very high temperatures, but this is not the same as sublimation. In summary, while some metal oxides may release gaseous products upon heating, they do not sublime in the traditional sense.
