1c.) Match what you think might happen:
Crystals of KNO3 that cool quickly
Crystals of KNO3 that cool slowly
...will be smaller in size but higher yield
....will be larger in size but lower yield
Experiment 1: Crystallisation of KNO; - thermodynamics vs kinetics In this experiment, a beaker with a pre-weighed (-15 B) of potassium nitrate solid (KNO) will be mixed with 25 ml of water, at a temperature > 60*C. Figure 1 shows the solubility curve for potassium nitrate (KNO.) solution as a function of temperature, which tells us the maximum mass of KNO, that can be dissolved in 100 g water, as a function of temperature.
