Crystallisation is a process that separates a pure solid in the form of its crystals from a solution. A solid can also be separated from its solution by evaporation. However crystallisation technique is better than simple evaporation technique. We can get an impure sample of a solid even after evaporation. Some solids decomposes or some may get charred on heating to dryness during evaporation.
What type of mixtures are separated by crystallisation?

Options

A. A mixture in which one component is soluble in a solvent.
B. A mixture in which impurities are soluble in a solvent.
C. A mixture in which both the components are soluble in a solvent.
D. A mixture in which both the components are insoluble in water.

Answer

A

Explanation

A mixture in which one component is soluble in a solvent.
