Hey friend!!
Here's your answer..
Crystallization is the solidification of atoms or molecules into a highly structured form called a crystal. ...Crystallization can also refer to the solid-liquid separation and purification technique in which mass transfer occurs from the liquid solution to a pure solid crystalline phase.
How to show copper sulphate crystal contain water of crystallization?
A: One of the simplest ways is through
thermogravimetric analysis or known
commonly as TGA. You measure the
weight of your sample, here CuSO4
crystals, heat them to around 200
degree Celsius and hold it at that
temperature to allow for dehydration
and measure the weight again. The
difference in weights can even tell you
how many molecules of water of
hydration were present in the crystals.
If there was no weight loss, then your
sample did not have any molecules of
water of hydration. You can even take
cursory X-ray diffraction pattern to
show that copper sulphate has not
undergone any other changes during
heating.
Hope it helps you!!
Have a great day ahead!!:)
