How does the rate of evaporation affect crystal growth and why?

When attempting to crystalize a material, it is important to understand that the slower the crystal grows, the purer the final crystal will be. This is because if the temperature or polarity or pressure or related crytal growth factor is changed too rapidly, it will cause multiple chemicals within the solution to "crash out"
By a similar logic, the rate of evaporation effects crystal growth because the faster it is, the less solution there is and, as such, the solubility of virtually all compounds decreases. If you have a rate of evaporation that is too fast, the solubilites of many chemical compounds (impurities) will change along with the solubility of the compound you are trying to crystalize and your crystal will have impurites. However, having a rate of evaportation that is too low can also dramtically increase the time of crystalization!

Wiki User
∙ 8y agoBecause the more the water evaporates the faster the crystals form.
slower evaporation= larger crystals.
faster evaporation= smaller crystals
Wiki User
∙ 13y agowhy do they have this if they don't even have the answers.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoyes they do because the whole crystal depends on the water!!yes they do because the whole crystal depends on the water!!
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoBecause different types of water have different nutrients in it. Also the nutrients effect the crystal's growth.

How does the size of the body of the water affect on evaporation rate?
A greater water area produce a higher evaporation.
Does adding sugar to water affect the rate of evaporation?
Yes, it decreases the evaporation rate. Sugar molecule contains a lot of -OH groups, which can make Hydrogen bonds with water. Since molecular attraction increases the rate of evaporation decreases.
Does cordial affect the growth rate of plants?
Yes it does affect the growth rate, depending on the branding, and particular ingredients, it can make the plant sick, or it can die.
Do impurities in water affect evaporation rate?
Yes. They will lower the vapor pressure of water.
Will different liquids effect the growth of a plant?
Crystals are grown for both scientific purposes and for experimentation in labs or science fairs, to demonstrate the various properties of different kinds of crystal formation. In all kinds of formation, the constant temperature plays an important role in crystal development, affecting not only how fast the crystals develop but the ways in which they grow.

How a warm day affect rate of evaporation?
The rate of evaporation increases
How does temperature affect the rate of evaporation?

How does the quality of water affect the rate of evaporation. Should it be considered for determining the rate of evaporation?
if quality of water reduce the evaporation will decrase
What are the factors that affect the rate of evaporation of water discuss how each one of these factors affect the rate of evaporation?
Climate change is warming up the atmosphere which is making evaporation happen faster. So climate change is a factor that affects the rate of water evaporation.
How does quality of water affect the evaporation rate?
Impurities in water can alter the evaporation rate, depending on the type and quantity of impurity.

Does being blind affect your growth rate?
Being blind should not affect your growth rate whatsoever.
How does increase in temperature surface area wind speed affect evaporation?
These are all variables used to calculate evaporation rate: The larger the surface area the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the wind speed the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the temperature the higher the evaporation (rate) The higher the relative humidity the lower the evaporation (rate)
Do the temperature affect the rate of evaporation?
Yes the hotter the weather the faster the evaporation, the colder the slower
What is a good hypothesis for does the temperature of water affect its evaporation rate?
At higher temperatures evaporation is faster.
