- heating a solution to obtain beads
- all of above
Common salt can be purified by a process of :
- crystallization
- homogenisation
- boiling
- distillation
The process of crystallization begins by:

After purification by crystallization, copper sulphate crystals can be obtained by :
- filtration
- passing through funnel
- evaporation to dryness
- all of above
Why is crystallization better than evaporation to dryness?
- Solids get charred in evaporation
- Solids get decomposed in evaporation
- Impurities do not get removed in evaporation
- All of above
What are the characteristics of the solvent used during purification of copper sulphate by crystallization?
- Not dissolve the substance at room temperature
- Dissolve the impurities at room temperature
- Does not dissolve the impurities at high temperature
- All of the above
The principle behind purification by crystallisation is that the :

- both a and b
- none of above
During concentration (saturation), copper sulfate solution is constantly stirred to :
