another satII chem question...
is the following statement true or false?
when a crystal is added to a supersaturated solution of itself, the crystal does not change.
none needed, i think!
i know, that the addition of the crystal will cause crystallization to occur.
but i didn't know if the crystal itself changed, does it?
...the book says it does, because it says the statement is false.
would appreciate any insight into this!
thanks a lottt :)
