The solvent for crystallization is usual...

The solvent for crystallization is usually selected by trial and error using small samples. The commonest solvents are water, alcohol or methylated spirits, glacial acetic acid, ete. Which of the following solvents are least describle ?
(i) Ether
(ii) Acetone
(iii) Benzene
(iv) Petrol

A

(ii), (iii)

B

(i), (iv)

C

(i), (iii)

D

(iii), (iv)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The high inflammability of ether and petrol makes them least desirable. Sometimes a mixture of two solvents is chosen.

During the process of crystallization, the funnel is usually preheated by passing through it just beforehand a little bit of hot pure solvent. This is done in order to (i) prevent undue cooling (ii) bring about the crystallization of most of the solute (iii) remove traces of impurity adhering to the crystals (iv) premature crystallization during filtration
