How does fractional crystallization help in removing the impurities from a solid substance?
The impurities grab on to the growing crystals
What is the principle of zone refining?
principle behind zone refining is fractional crystallization; it is a process of separation of solute from its solution.
How do you remove water from seawater?
For example by fractional crystallization.
What is water in a crystal that is an integral part of the crystal structure called?
water of crystallization or water of hydration or crystallization water
Is crystallization of copper sulphate a physical change?
Yes: Crystallization of an already existing chemical substance is a physical change.
What do you use fractional crystallization for?
when do we use crystallization to separate components
Which process describes how different minerals form at different rates?
Fractional Crystallization
How does fractional crystallization lead to magmatic differentiation?
As a magma crystallizes it undergoes fractional crystallization in which mafic minerals crystallize first and felsic minerals crystallize last. Therefore, as fractional crystallization occurs the magma becomes increasingly less mafic and increasingly more felsic. The viscosity also increases as a magma becomes more felsic.
What igneous rock may be formed by fractional crystallization of olivine and pyroxene?
ultramafic
What type of rock may be formed by fractional crystallization of olivine and pyroxene.?
Peridotite.
How would you separate water and sugar?
simply by crystallization of sugar or by fractional distillation
How does fractional crystallization help in removing the impurities from a solid substance?
The impurities grab on to the growing crystals
What is the method of separating mixture of nitre and common salt?
A method of separation may be the fractional crystallization.
Is crystallization a separating technique?
Yes, crystallization is a method of separation; a very known application is the separation of salt from sea waters.
If a body of magma is subjected to fractional crystallization the magma that results is expectd to be?
More felsic than the source rock.
Can a single magma can produce several different igneous rocks having different mineral compositions?
Yes; through the process know as fractional crystallization, which changes the composition of the magma, therefore changing the minerals that eventually crystallize from it. Fractional crystallization occurs largely from the varying temperatures at which minerals crystallize.
Why can minerals that form early in fractional crystallization grow distint?
They form more euhedral shapes because they are the first to crystallize, and don't have to compete for room.
