If I have a mixture of NaOH and NaNO3 and want to separate them via crystallization how would I go about it? Let's say my solvent is ethanol. 1g NaOH dissolves in 7.2ml ethanol whereas it takes 125ml to dissolve a gram of NaNO3. I'm not well versed in solutions, if I added a 72ml of ethanol to a 1:1 mixture weighing 20g would the ethanol dissolve mainly the NaOH since it has a far greater solubility?
