yes
Crystals can be grown from borax and boiling water by creating a supersaturated solution of borax in the water. As the solution cools, borax particles start to come together and form crystals. By allowing the solution to sit undisturbed for a period of time, large borax crystals will begin to grow.
Well it depends. But im currently growing salt, suagr and borax crystals and my borax crystals formed first. So i guess my answer is No, borax crystals grow faster but dont take my answer as a fact i could be wrong.
I suppose that this temperature is approx. 5 oC.
Crystals form on ice cream when the water content in the ice cream freezes and solidifies into ice crystals. Factors like the speed of freezing, temperature fluctuations, and the ingredients used in the ice cream can affect crystal formation. Rapid temperature changes or improper storage can lead to larger ice crystals, resulting in a gritty texture.
Yes, water freezes at 0°C. When the temperature drops below this point, water will begin to form ice crystals and solidify.
Yes, borax crystals typically form faster than salt crystals because borax crystals have a higher solubility in water compared to salt. This allows borax molecules to come together and form crystals more quickly when the solution cools.
Borax crystals form best at room temperature because the warm temperature helps the borax dissolve more easily in the water. Placing the solution in an ice bath or refrigerating it will slow down the crystallization process, resulting in smaller crystals or a longer time for crystal formation.
they form crystals but that's only if you have a pipe cleaner and hot water and borax

Crystals can be grown from borax and boiling water by creating a supersaturated solution of borax in the water. As the solution cools, borax particles start to come together and form crystals. By allowing the solution to sit undisturbed for a period of time, large borax crystals will begin to grow.
Borax crystals typically form within a few hours to overnight when grown using the "hot water" method, where the borax is dissolved in hot water and then allowed to cool. The exact time can vary depending on factors like the concentration of borax and the temperature of the solution.
i did a project on this and they grow better in cold
Borax has a solubility of 5.8 grams per 100 milliliters of solution or 5.8 percent at room temperature. However at an elevated water temperature, more borax will dissolve than at room temperature. As the hot borax solution cools to room temperature, it becomes supersaturated. Supersaturated solutions are unstable and the excess borax will crystallize on any rough surface.
To make borax crystals, you typically mix 3 tablespoons of borax with 1 cup of very hot water. Stir until the borax is fully dissolved. Then, you can suspend a pipe cleaner or string in the solution and let it sit for 24 hours to allow the crystals to form.

When borax is mixed with hot water, it dissolves forming a saturated solution. As the solution cools, the solubility of borax decreases, causing the excess borax to come out of the solution and recrystallize. This process forms crystals as the borax molecules arrange themselves in an organized structure to minimize energy.
Borax crystals grow better in a refrigerator because the lower temperature slows down the rate of evaporation, allowing the crystals to form more slowly and evenly. This helps to prevent impurities from forming in the crystals and results in larger, more well-defined crystals.
