Why is water a poor solvent for the recrystallisation of iodine?

Water is a poor solvent for the recrystallization of iodine because iodine is only slightly soluble in water. As a nonpolar solvent, water cannot effectively dissolve the polar iodine molecules, resulting in low solubility and poor recrystallization efficiency. Other solvents, such as ethanol or acetone, are more suitable for recrystallizing iodine due to their ability to dissolve iodine more effectively.
