Usually, solvents at lower temperature can dissolve lower amount of crystals than solvents at higher temperatures.

For eg. if impurity is salt then you are better off washing it at a lower temperature as salts have a good solubility even at lower temperatures and as you raise temperature your crystals will start dissolving in the warm solvent.

What are the disadvantages of crystallization over evaporation to dryness?

Crystallization may require more time and effort to obtain pure crystals compared to evaporation to dryness. Crystallization can also lead to loss of product if the crystals are difficult to separate from the mother liquor. Additionally, some compounds may not readily form crystals, making crystallization less effective in those cases compared to evaporation to dryness.


The purging of impurities from a compound by crystallization?

Yes, it is. You dissolve your substance in the smallest amount possible of something suitable, hot - often ethanol. Then you cool it down and the substance should solidify. You filter to keep the solid and get rid of the impurities in the liquid. The trick is choosing the solvent wisely so that you get a good solubility when hot and not when cold.


Assuming that charcoal and sugar are the main impurities present in a sample of crude acetanilide explain how recrystallization from water would remove each..?

Recrystallization from water would remove charcoal impurities by dissolving the acetanilide in hot water, as charcoal is insoluble in water. The sugar impurities would also be removed because they are more soluble in hot water than in cold water, so they would remain dissolved during the recrystallization process and be removed in the mother liquor.


How can you produce potassium gold cyanide give detail?

how I make PGC : 1. Make aquaregia (75% HCL + 25% HNO3) from high grade chemical. 2. Introduce the Gold (24 kt) in bulk or small piece in warm aquaregia for fast soluble. (gold : aquaregia is about 1 : 5 weight). 3. Heat the solution, don't exceed 85 degree Celcius. 4. A long heating introduce excess HCL. 5. Heat and evaporated until you got a concentrate like syrup that is Gold Chloride. 6. Gold chloride will become cristall when you cool the syrup. 7. Introduce a little water to disolve the gold chloride. 8. Make amonia solution of 30 ml Amonia in 100 ml water cocentration. (use high grade amonia). 9. Pour the amonia slowly to Gold Chloride until Ph=8. You will get the precipitate that call Gold Fulminating. Be carefull with the Fulminating, It should not to dry because it is Highly Explosive Danger ! 10. Wash the Precipitate to remove excess amonia. Wash several time until PH reach near 7. 11. Make another concentrate Potasium Cyanide solution (KCN). 12. Pour the KCN to Fulminating Gold slowly with agitation until all the fulminating disolve. You Got a solution name Mother Liquor. 13. Heat the Mother Liquor, my experience not over 65 degree celcius. Evaporate amonia from mother liquor until no amonia smell anymore. 14. Cristallize the PGC by continue evaporation. Vacum will be very helpfull. You don't need to evaporate all the mother liquor. Until you evaporate about 75% volume stop the process. Collect the PGC and keep the mother liquor. Dry the PGC by vacum. Mother liquor still can be use in the next production by mixed it with the next Fulminating. 15. Do the all the process in very good ventilation. Good luck.


Some reasons why crystallization process will not give 100 percent recovery?

Some reasons why crystallization process will not give 100 percent recovery include impurities present in the solution which may remain in the mother liquor, incomplete dissolution of the solute, losses during filtration or other separation steps, and solute degradation or decomposition during the process.
