Title: Fractional Crystallization
Post by: siustrulka on Mar 17, 2011
1d. determine the number of grams of water required at 100 Celsius to dissolve a mixture containing 20 g KNO3 and 2.0 g CuSO4*5H20 assuming that the solubility of one substance is not affected by the presence of another.

2. to the solution in Problem 1d at 100 Celsius, 15g of water are added and the solution is cooled to 0 Celsius

a. How much KNO3 remains in solution (see figure 1 http://img36.imageshack.us/i/pichj.png/ (http://img36.imageshack.us/i/pichj.png/))
b. How much KNO3 crystallizes out?
c. How much CuSO4*5 H2O crystallizes out?
d What percent of the KNO3 in the sample is recovered?

To solve this problem, you need the solubilty data of KNO3 in water from 0 to 100 C. To determine mass which crystallizes out, subtract the solubility of KNO3 at the lower temperature from that at the higher temperature.

I think the following writeup may help you

add the first amount of water (in grams) to the added amount of water and multiply by .1 (because 10g/100ml) then subtract that amount from the given amount...that is your amount of KNO3 crystallized.

This problem is confusing to all of the chem students.... our values are different though.

Our problem looks like the thumbnail from the first page, but we don't even know where to start on part two! Do you have any  idea how to work this problem out?

What is the initial KNO3 that's required for part A? Is it still 25g like its given or did it dissolve

what about 10g of water instead of 15g?

How would u find the conversion factor at 0 degrees??


Title: Re: Fractional Crystallization
Post by: BurritoBob on Sep 15, 2013
I'm assuming at 0C, we should use 10 and 20 as the amount

so how after you find the masses what do u do next to find out the out much solution remains

To determine mass which crystallizes out, subtract the solubility of KNO3 at the lower temperature from that at the higher temperature.

How do you do this? I'm still slightly confused, I understand you need to setup ratios, but not exactly what.

Question 2 part do is a percentage question. Your answer shouldn't be in grams

Been stuck on this for awhile now, the lab itself doesn't explain anything enough for you to be able to do a pre-lab. Thank you so much for this.
