Answer: The best way to promote the process are:
--> Add a bit of solid as a seed crystal.
--> Scratch the bottom of the flask gently with a stirring rod.
Explanation:
A crystal growth is seen is SUPERSATURATED solutions which contains more solute than it can normally dissolve at that given temperature. It is usually very UNSTABLE and capable of releasing the excess solute if disturbed, either by shaking or seeding with a tiny crystals.
Crystallization can be used for the separation of two salts with different solubilities as well as for purification of a soluble salt that contains insoluble solid impurities. Recrystallization improves the validity of the process. Crystallization can be initiated by:
--> Scratching the bottom of the flask gently with a stirring rod: scratching initiates crystallization by providing energy from the high-frequency vibrations.
--> Adding a bit of solid as a seed crystal: Seed crystals create a nucleation site where crystals can begin growth.
Given in the problem is the mass of the liquid (500 grams) and the volume of the liquid (1000 ml = 1000 cm^3).
We can use these two givens to calculate the density of the liquid using the following rule:
density = mass / volume
density = 500 / 1000 = 0.5 grams / cm^3
Comparing the calculated density with the choices we have, we can deduce that the liquid is most likely to be propane with density 0.494 g / cm^3
Conventional volcanoes are known to erupt after pressure builds up from new magma flowing into the magma chambers that lie below the vents on the Earth's surface.
