the melting point of an organic substance is a practical and efficient way for scientists to identify an unknown substance or determine a known substance’s level of purity. When organic substances are mixed together in varying degrees they take on a melting characteristic that is lower and broader than in its pure form. This property was manipulated in the lab to observe the various melting points of Naphthalene and Biphenyl when the percentage of composition was altered. A eutectic point of 45 °C at

This paper is a full determination for certain chemicals and their boiling points. It lists some already but given the atomic numbers of any material this project includes a conversion and calculation chart to find the freezing point of most any material. GOOD LUCK! Abstract: In this lab we determined the freezing point‚ and Kf‚ of pure 2‚4‚dichloralbenzne as well as a 2‚4‚dichloralbenzne/biphenyl solution. We used this information to determine the molar mass of an unknown (#24) by the 3rd step

2013 LECTERUR : EXPERIMENT 4 DETERMINING MOLECULE WEIGHT BY FREEZING POINT DEPRESSION METHOD STUDENT NAME : ID : LAB PARTNERS | | INTRODUCTION According to Anne‚ n.d‚ the freezing point of a liquid is decreased by adding to another compound to it. This is known as freezing point depression. The pure solvent will have higher freezing point than the solution. Colligative property of matter can explain more about freezing point depression. Whereas‚ colligative properties depends on the number

In part one of my project you learned about how salt affects the freezing point of water. In my science project I wanted to see if salt affected the freezing point of water. I started by doing some experiments. My first experiment was whether tap water or salt water would freeze first. I first started by mixing up the salt water warming it for one minute and warming the tap for one minute also. My second experiment was what ice cube would melt fastest. I started by getting two bowls. Two ice cubes

Nitration of Naphthalene Wed 2/25/2015 Lab report # 1 Abstract: The purpose of this experiment was to nitrate naphthalene with nitronium ion‚ which is formed at low concentration from a reaction of nitric acid and sulfuric acid. The percent yield from the experiment was 54.4% of the product‚ and the melting point of the possible results were 59 °C for 1-nitronaphthalene‚ and 78°C for 2-nitronaphthalene. Introduction: Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons such as naphthalene can be nitrated
