Does insoluble substances form crystals?

If a substance is not soluble it means that it does not form a solution with a considered solvent. A substance soluble in a solvent can be not soluble in another. For example a few fats are not soluble in water, but they are soluble in ethyl alcohol. If you mix a solvent with a substance that is not soluble they maintain separate phases. If the substance that is not soluble is liquid (like if you mix oil and water) it remains liquid, but the two liquids remain separated into the contained forming large aggregations where only one of them is present. Due to the shacking these aggregations can change shape and volume, but the two liquids never creates the needed bonds to form a solution. If the substance that is not soluble is a solid, it deposits on the floor of the container in the same form it was inserted inside, unless it floats on the surface of the liquid due to Archimedes law. For example wood is not soluble in water and floats generally on the water surface, while iron is also not soluble and falls on the floor. For example if you put an iron crystal inside water it falls on the floor of the container remaining a crystal, this also happens for all the crystals that are not soluble in water, that generally are metal or covalent crystals, since ionic crystals like salt (NaCl) are dissolved by polar water molecules. If the solid substance is not a crystal, like a piece of plastic, that generally is an amorphous polymer,, it retains its amorphous state: the plastic deposits on the floor of the container as it was inserted inside.

Can be separated by physical changes?

Some mixtures can be separated by physical changes. For example distilling alcohol can be done by heating the mixture to between the boiling points of water and alcohol, so the alcohol boils off, leaving the water. The alcohol is then condensed into another container.

How do you decant a solution?

Decanting can be used o separate a liquid from an insoluble solid. As the solid settles to the bottom of the container, the liquid can be carefully poured into another container leaving the solid (sediment) behind. Decanting can also be used to separate two immiscible liquids like oil and vinegar.
