Which crystallization consequence results when solution concentration exceeds stability limits?

A)Undesired polymorph formation occurs
B)Increased ion solvation is observed
C)Perfect single crystal growth happens
D)Kinetic solubility momentarily increases

💡 Explanation

Supersaturation causes nucleation rather than crystal facet growth. ­Uncontrolled precipitation favors the formation of thermodynamically favored polymorphs through Ostwald's Step Rule because the kinetics drive the process, therefore polymorph A is favored rather than perfectly formed single crystal D.
