We suspect that this unknown compound is either acetanilide or phenacetin. From the solubility of acetaminophen and phenacetin‚ we could know both of them are relatively soluble in boiling water but insoluble in cold water so that we took the recrystallization as the method to purifying the unknown component. After the unknown purified‚ then we could measure it melting point. This whole experiment is based on purifying and then finding the melting point of the unknown compound. The theory is that if

RECRYSTALLIZATION AND MELTING POINT DETERMINATION OF BENZOIC ACID ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. How does the use of fluted filter paper hasten filtration? Why is it advisable to place a small piece of wire between the funnel and the mouth of the flask during hot filtration? Fluted filter paper is effective in preventing crystal formation in the filter paper. It is also often used in filtering hot saturated solution used during crystallization. One major advantage of a fluted filter is that it increases

Recrystallization Description of Technique/Process Recrystallization is the process of purifying solids based on their different solubilities. The steps involved in recrystallization are: a. Find a suitable solvent for the recrystallization; b. Dissolve the impure solid in a minimum volume of hot solvent; c. Remove any insoluble impurities by filtration; d. Slowly cool the hot solution to crystallize the desired compound from the solution; e. Filter the solution to isolate

The Purity and Purification of Solids- Part 2- Recrystallization Courtney Percival CH 337 Laboratory‚ Section 037 Department of Chemistry Portland State University‚ Portland OR ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION Recrystallization is a commonly used tool in laboratories when dealing with impure solids. "An effective recrystallization is one in which 1) a high degree of purity is achieved as well as 2) a maximum recovery of sample".1 Solubility‚ the tendency of a substance to dissolve in a liquid‚ is an

EXPERIMENT 2: Recrystallization and Melting Point Recrystallization (or Crystallization) is a technique used to purify solids. This procedure relies on the fact that solubility increases as temperature increases (you can dissolve more sugar in hot water than in cold water). As a hot‚ saturated solution cools‚ it becomes supersaturated and the solute precipitates (crystallizes) out. In a recrystallization procedure‚ an impure (crude) solid is dissolved in a hot solvent. As this solution is cooled
