How do you prove that glucose do not raise the melting point of stearic acid?

To prove that glucose does not raise the melting point of stearic acid, conduct a melting point analysis of stearic acid alone and stearic acid mixed with glucose. If the melting point of the mixture is the same as that of stearic acid alone, it indicates that the presence of glucose does not affect the melting point of stearic acid. This experiment can help demonstrate that glucose does not raise the melting point of stearic acid.
