I Nucleation occurs when solutes form clusters of sufficient size which reorganize into a more ordered structure capable of growing into larger particles.
II Particle growth occurs when ions,molecules,or other nuclei condense onto a particle to form a larger crystal.
III Sources of nucleation are solution impurities or small scratches on a glass surface.
