Answer:
Sublimation is preferred over crystallization for purification in small scale due to the following reasons:
- Entrapment of solvent in the crystal lattice ;
-- Co-crystallization of more than one compounds;
- Feasibility of vacuum sublimation improves the efficiency;and
- Relatively longer time period required for crystallization.
