← HistoryWhich effect results from sulfur sublimation during siege warfare?
A)Greek fire's increased adhesion✓
B)Improved catapult projectile range
C)Enhanced mosaic coloring process
D)Increased silk production efficiency
💡 Explanation
Adhesion is increased because sulfur sublimation lowered the combustion temperature, creating melted sulfur, as sulfur acts as a binding compound. Therefore, 'Greek fire' would stick to surfaces vigorously, rather than disperse as a gas on impact.
