Solvents for recrystallization are fundamentally chosen based on temperature-dependent solute solubility, as differential solubility at varying temperatures enables purification and crystallization.
The claim is a standard, universally accepted textbook principle in chemistry regarding recrystallization and solution thermodynamics. While textbook definitions and everyday chemical practices represent common knowledge, several retrieved papers (such as papers 1, 2, and 9) directly investigate temperature-dependent solubility and crystallization processes, aligning with the premise of the claim.
