Abstract:
Experimental data on the evaporation kinetics of saturated K$_2$SO$_4$ solution drops and the nucleation kinetics of the first crystals are used to develop a simple procedure for the calculation of the solution concentration and the number, size, and dispersity of growing crystals. The calculation results agree well with the experimental data on the growth kinetics of K$_2$SO$_4$ crystals and their dispersity after complete evaporation of water. The dispersity of crystals is shown to linearly depend on the reciprocal time of evaporation of drops having different initial heights.
