Abstract
The following nucleation rate and growth rate relationships for the aqueous, continuous, cooling crystallization of potassium dichromate were determined from experimental crystal size distributions: J = 3.9 Γ 10^10^ (C β C~eq~)^0.9^; r = 3.0 Γ 10^3^ (C β C~eq~)^1.7^. Since nucleation rate is of lower kinetic order than growth rate, higher levels of supersaturation will yield crystal distributions with a larger mean size. Therefore for this system, batch or plugβflow reactors are preferred to continuousβstirred tanks.
