A double boiler is used for this. It can also be melted in a regular pan, with water, on a very low heat.
Fisher-Johns apparatus is mainly used to measure the boiling point
1) Experiment. 2) Ask the question on here. "What is the melting point of sugar?" *)I'll save you the trouble, though. The melting point of Table sugar (sucrose)= around 366.8°F or 186°C
the use of a stirred oil bath, an electrical heating element, a thermometer and a capillary tube along with a magnifying glass is usually used for determining the melting point of crystalline solids. All of these may be found handily contained in a Hoover apparatus.
The silicone oil is not flammable, has a good thermal conductivity, is thermally stable.
the melt and mix method is when you melt butter and add it to sugar. this method is used in cooking.
Stationary bicycle
A condenser.
The apparatus used for determining the melting point will heat the sample at an appropriate rate. All you need to do is watch and note the point at which the sample melts, as should be demonstrated to you by your lab supervisor.
apparatus
No. The temperature does not change during the melting process. All of the heat energy is used to break the bonds of the solid to form a liquid, i.e. the energy is used in the phase change, and thus is not used to raise the temperature.
vicats apparatus is used for initial setting time of cement.
Everyone wanted the sugar. It was used for sweets, cooking, and rum.
