Hot saturated solutions of sodium nitrate forms crystals as it cools. Why
Answers
Answer:
Hot saturated solutions of sodium nitrate forms crystals as it cools. This is due to precipitation of remaining salt in the solution.
Explanation:
Hot saturated solutions of sodium nitrates cools the amount of salt dissolved also decreases.
This decreased amount of salt dissolved leads the precipitation of salt which results in crystallisation of sodium nitrate.
Answer:
In hot condition, solutions dissolve more amount or quantity of salt,hence, a hot solution of potassium nitrate has more salt dissolved in it compared to the solution at ambient temperature.
When hot saturated potassium nitrate solution becomes cold, the amount of salt that can remain in solution reduces. Like that time some of the potassium nitrates begins to precipitate out of solution in the form of crystals.
