The solubility of phthalic acid in water is 0.54 g/100 mL at 14 C and 18 g/100 mL at 99 C.What is the smallest volume of boiling water that should be used to recrystallize 600 mg of phthalic acid from hot water?
You will have to recrystallize many compounds throughout organic I and II. Write a short procedure on how you would do a simple recrystallization( no hot gravity filtration involved). Assume you know which solvent to use but not the solubility of that compound in the solvent.
