When performing a recrystallization of an impure solid, why is it important to allow the heated solution to cool slowly? Group of answer choices To encourage greater solid solubility. For the molecules of the solid being purified to arrange in organized crystal lattices. To avoid the need for using ice to cool the solution. To trap particles in the crystal lattice.

Briefly explain how slow cooling contributes to the formation of pure crystals during recrystallization.
- What is the ideal solvent behavior for crystallization? - You will probably hear me say frequently: “minimum amount of hot solvent” during this lab. Why isthat?
You've just synthesized a new molecule and need to purify it by recrystallization. You find that it is poorly soluble in water and highly soluble in ethanol, even when cooled in ice. What solvent should work in this situation? a. water b. Recrystallization from any solvent is impossible. c. methanol d. a solvent mixture - water and ethanol
After a recrystallization, a pure substance will ideally appear as a network of Choose...smalllargeround Choose...clumpspowderscrystals . If this is not the case, it may be worthwhile to reheat the flask and allow the contents to cool more Choose...completelyquicklyslowly .

Why is flameless heating used for heating a solution in hexane or diethyl ether during a recrystallization? Why should the size of crystals obtained in a recrystallization be neither too large nor too small?
What is the problem with using a solvent with a very high boiling point for recrystallization?
Theoretically, the inherent viscosity for solutions (not pure solvents) should always be a. greater than 0 b. less than 0 c. greater than 1 d. between 0 and 1
Based on the melting point of your impure solid, you look at the given samples and believe you havecompound A. Compound A is recrystallized using a mixed solvent system of ethanol and water. You add1 ml of hot ethanol to your sample and it doesn’t completely dissolve. You continue to add hot ethanolbut there isn’t any change. Some solid remains. What should you do next?
