Options
- AThey should have similar solubilities.
- BThey should have identical melting points.
- CThey should have different solubilities.
- DThey should have the same color.
Correct answer
C. They should have different solubilities.
Step-by-step solution
The success of crystallization relies on the difference in solubilities between the compound and impurities; they should have different solubilities.
