What happens when the temperature stays the same in a melting curve?
During melting the temperature remain constant if it was achieved the melting point.
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
How can melting point and boiling point determination be used in identifying and or characterizing unknown compounds?
compounds are identified because each compound have characteristically different melting and boiling points.
What happens to the temperature of a solid at its melting point when heated?
The intermolecular forces of attraction in the solid decreases as it is heated and the solid melts (solid converts to liquid) at its melting point.
Why do you use a new capillary tube for melting point determination each time?
It is not easy to be cleaned inside.
What happens when the temperature stays the same in a melting curve?
During melting the temperature remain constant if it was achieved the melting point.
What happens to neon during melting point?
There are a number of things that could happen to neon while it is at its melting point. It could melt.
Why is the melting point determination not used to find the melting point of inorganic compounds?
Because it has a very high melting point, and therefore we do not have the ability to be measured.RegardsDr. Mahmoud Hassouna
Why is it misleading to identify a solid compound just from a lone melting determination?
Because the melting point can be very similar; also impurities change the value of the melting point.
Determination of melting pont of ice and the boiling point of water?
At standard pressure: - Melting point of ice: 0 0C - Boiling point of water: 100 0C
How do the melting and boiling point determine the purity of the substance and identify them?
*usually* melting point is a good indicator of a substance's purity. The technique of melting point determination is used frequently in organic chemistry labs.
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
How can melting point and boiling point determination be used in identifying and or characterizing unknown compounds?
compounds are identified because each compound have characteristically different melting and boiling points.
What happens in the melting point of ice?
it evaporates
When are oil baths and water baths used respectively for melting point determination?
oil is used when we are determining the melting point of compound higher than 100 while for those compound which have melting point less then 100 we use water bath
What happens to the temperature of a solid at its melting point when heated?
The intermolecular forces of attraction in the solid decreases as it is heated and the solid melts (solid converts to liquid) at its melting point.
