Chapter 4, Problem 9Q
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason for the isolation of the final product of recrystallization by vacuum filtration instead of gravity filtration should be determined.

Concept introduction:

Recrystallization is a technique that is used to purify the impure compounds. It is based on the principle that the solubility of substances increases with the increase in temperature.

Following are some of the types of recrystallization:

  1. Single-solvent recrystallization
  2. Multi-solvent recrystallization
  3. Hot filtration-recrystallization

Blurred answer
