Which of the following statements is correct with regards to paracetamol? Dichloromethane is a good solvent, so is suitable for recrystallization. Ethyl acetate is a better recrystallization solvent than water. Petroleum ether is a better recrystallization solvent than methylated spirts. Recrystallization from water gives abundant white crystals. Low boiling point solvents are effective in the separation of impurites in the recrystallization.
