← ScienceWhich outcome results when differential solubility prevents recrystallization refining of ionic solids?
A)Increased point defect concentrations remain✓
B)Grain boundary surface segregation increases
C)Crystal dislocation slip planes propagate slowly
D)Charge carrier mobility significantly decreases
💡 Explanation
Ionic solids purified by recrystallization rely on precipitating impurities. Because differential solubility inhibits ideal crystal formation, ionic defects creation increases, therefore point defects remain from non-ideal ionic purification, rather than affecting grain boundary segregation or mechanical dislocation.
