Learning Objectives

At the end of this simulation, you will be able to:

Describe the basic principles of recrystallization theory, encompassing both the molecular and procedural aspects.
Execute the recrystallization process using recommended techniques.
Identify and resolve typical issues that may arise during recrystallization.
Effectively retrieve a reaction product through suction filtration and the subsequent drying of the crystalline solid.
Ascertain the melting point of a pure solid compound and elucidate the distinctions observed compared to data obtained from the crude sample.

How do virtual labs work?

Enhance students' involvement in science by immersing them in interactive learning scenarios. Create simulations for experiments, provide hands-on training in laboratory techniques, and convey theoretical concepts through captivating visual experiences to improve their overall long-term learning outcomes.

Access web-based simulations that are compatible with laptops, Chromebooks, tablets, and iPads, eliminating the need for software installation.
Incorporate a teacher dashboard for automated grading and monitoring of student progress.
Utilize embedded quizzes to assist students in mastering scientific content.
Comprehensive repository of educational materials, including learning resources, lab reports, videos, theory pages, graphics, and more.
