Solution

Crystallization is the process of forming solid crystals from a liquid.

  • The solvents evaporate when the solution warms, leaving a more pure product in a form of pure solute.
  • Impure salt gets dissolved in a suitable solvent in this process.
  • Some contaminants will remain undissolved after pure salt particles have dissolved.
  • The pure salt is then obtained by recrystallizing the residual solution. As a result of the crystallization process.
    Procedure:
    Filter the solution to remove contaminants and undissolved salt from the dissolved pure salt.
  • Allow time for it to cool. While the solution is cooling, do not disturb it.
  • After some time, pure salt crystals will develop in the solution, and the crystals will begin to grow.
