Crystallizations
Crystallizations refer to the process by which a solid forms, where the atoms or molecules are highly organized into a distinct, ordered structure. This process typically involves the cooling of a liquid or the evaporation of a solvent, leading to the formation of crystals with specific shapes and properties. Crystallizations are commonly used in chemistry and material science to purify substances, study their structure, and create new materials with desirable characteristics. This phenomenon is governed by factors such as temperature, concentration, and the presence of impurities, which can influence the size, shape, and purity of the resulting crystals.
