At its core, fractional crystallization leverages the differences in solubility among the components of a mixture. Solubility, in essence, is the ability of a substance (the solute) to dissolve in a ...

Students will learn how to categorize matter as either pure substances or mixtures. Students will apply tests, based on physical properties of matter samples, to determine whether a mixture is ...

The choice of separation technique depends on the nature of the mixture and the desired level of purity. Common techniques ...

Vapor-phase synthesis, a technique used to create very pure and scalable nanomaterials and coatings, has great promise for ...

A new, simple form of a cubic equation of state (EOS) has been developed in a recent study. A comparison to experimental data and other cubic equations of state show that the new EOS is more accurate.
