acceleration. In this experiment‚ a glider was placed on an inclined air track and was then allowed to accelerate down the track under the force of gravity. With the aid of two photogates and an electronic timer‚ the times it took the glider to take the glider to pass through each photogate (∆t) as well as the times it took for it to pass from the first photogate to the second photogate (T). From these measurements the length of the flag card and the velocity of the glider at various points along the ramp

Experiment No. 1: MELTING POINT AND BOILING POINTS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ABSTRACT The properties of organic compounds depend on their chemical structures. Intermolecular forces of attraction affect physical properties such as melting and boiling point. Through the Thomas Hoover apparatus‚ the melting point of 8 test compounds was determined. Salicylic acid exhibited the highest melting point while naphthalene‚ the lowest. The stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction‚ the higher the melting

ABSTRACT Determining the melting point of a solid organic compound is the easiest way to identify the compound and determine its purity at the same time. For actual samples of compounds‚ the melting will occur over a range of temperatures making the melting points into a melting “range”. The difference between the temperature at which the sample begins to melt and the temperature at which it finishes melting‚ or the magnitude of the melting range‚ is a very important criteria of determining the
