Stearic acid has the chemical formula of C18H36O2. To find the number of protons in this molecule, we first need to know the number of protons for each of its constituent atoms. This information can be found in any chemistry book. The results are that carbon has 6 protons per atom, hydrogen has 1, and oxygen has 8. So, after doing some simple arithmetic, we find that stearic acid has 6*18 + 1*36 + 8*2 = 160 protons per molecule.

if the stearic acid were impure, would the freezing point of stearic acid be higher or lower than the value you obtain in this experiment.
The carbon chain of stearic acid is longer; more long chain, higher melting point.The melting point of stearic acid is 69,3 0C and the melting point of oleic acid is 14 0C.
yes
Will Raise the flash point !

Stearic Acid
Saponification is not applied to pure stearic acid; stearic acid esters are used.

No, impurities do not raise the melting point of Stearic Acid, they decrease it. All impurities decrease the melting point of solids.
Because water evapurates
90 degrees Celsius
The boiling point of Nitric Acid is 121 degree celsius.
stearic acid is more strong i think so..........
