What are the desirable properties of a recrystallization solvent?
One property that a solvent should have to be well suited for recrystallization of a particular compound is high solubility. It should also readily dissolve the organic compound at high temperature and precipitate the compound at low temperature.
What is the effect of temperature on a solid dissolved in a liquid?
Temperature directly affects all solutions. If the temperature is to high, bonds that need to be formed cant be. For example, at a low temp in an organic mixture you will get more single bonded carbons. At a high temp the organic compound will lose a hydrogen and form a c=c double bond
What is the boiling point of pizza?
Pizza would not boil. Beforethe temperature got high enough, it would char and decompose.
Is the melting point of organic compound high or low?
Melting point is important in organic chemistry because it can be used for the identification of a compound. For pure solid organic compounds will have a small melting point range (0.5-10C),thus presence of impurity can also be find out by Melting point.
How does temperature and salinity effect the stability of water?
The chemical stability of water is not affected by the salinity; also water decompose at very high temperatures.

Why does Calcium carbonate need a high temperature to decompose?
High thermal Stability
What substances won't melt no matter how high their temperature?
The only things that won't melt at high temperature are those that decompose first. For instance, wood will burn long before it melts! Many many things decompose at high temperatures before they melt. If it doesn't decompose first, everything will eventually melt.
What forms when R12 and R22 gas decompose at high temperature?
phosphoric acid
Why can a compound be decompose?
Compunds can decompose for many reasons, ussually due to a high release of energy near them, or just a general decay that happens over time.

Is high fructose corn syrup an element or a compound?
It is an organic compound (actually a mixture as it also contains water).

Is high fructose corn syrup a compound or element?
It is an organic compound (actually a mixture as it also contains water).
Two reasons why heating to a high temperature is not a suitable method for finding the percentage of water in all hydrates?
Some compounds can lost not only the water; they can decompose at high temperature.
Can Mercury oxide be decomposed?
Mercury oxide can be decomposed, and in general, any chemical will decompose at a sufficiently high temperature.
Write two characteristics of organic compound?
The organic compounds readily burn in air. They have high boiling points and low melting points.
