Question

How can you cause re crystallization in a solution?

Answer 1

could you cool the solution? can you add more solute? increase the temp? or all 3?

Answer 2

What are you trying to do, purify something? You're essentially using solubility to remove umpurities from your asample.

Answer 3

For recrystallization, you would do all three, add more solute, increase the temp, and then cool the solution.

Answer 4

hence, the term "recrystallize", you need to cool it again to allow recrystallization.
