How does the melting behavior of lauric acid would change if an impurity was introduced in the sample?
The presence of an impurity in lauric acid would likely decrease the melting point of the sample due to impurity disrupting the crystal lattice structure, making it easier for the molecules to overcome the intermolecular forces and transition from solid to liquid. The impurity can act as a defect, which requires less energy to break the bonds holding the crystal structure together, resulting in a lower melting point.
What do you call the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid?
This is the melting point.
The temperature at which a solid melts is called?
The temperature at which a solid melts is called the melting point. At this temperature, the solid transitions into a liquid state.
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.
What is the physical change of a solid at the melting point?
It turns from a solid to a liquid
Which term is defined as the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid state?
The term defined as the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid state is called the melting point.
Which factor has the greatest effect on the melting point of a crystalline solid?
The factor that has the greatest effect on the melting point of a crystalline solid is the type of bonding among the particles. Heat breaks the bonds that hold the particles together.
The temperature in which a solid melts is called its?
The temperature at which a solid melts is called its melting point.
What becomes solid above the melting point?
assuming it is its own melting point NOTHING which is why its a MELTING point
What is high melting point?
The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes STATE from SOLID to LIQUID. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends (usually slightly) on pressure and is usually specified at STANDARDatmospheric pressure.
What point does a solid turn into?
A solid turns into a liquid at its melting point.
When a solid is heated to its melting point what happens?
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.
