Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
To determine the composition of the crystalline product.
Concept introduction:
Crystallization is the process in which the solute particles are separated as a crystal in the solids in highly organized form which may retain suspended in the mother liquid. This process is generally utilized for the purpose of purification of impure sample.
(b)
Interpretation:
To estimate the required feed and vapor flow rates in kg/h, and the rate at which MgSO4 could be recovered from the crystals.
