Explanation:
The process by which atoms are arranged to form a material with a crystal shape is called crystallization.
With the help of crystallization process we can purify a solid compound.
For example, ice and snowflakes occur due to crystallization of water.
In this process, small quantity of desired solvent is added into the impure solid. Then it is heated to let the solid dissolve and after that it is cooled down so that crystals are formed. Then with the help of vacuum filtration pure solid is extracted.
