solids is done by observing the melting point. This is important because if there is an impure substance the melting point would be depression and the melting range would be broader. By finding the melting point of a known substance one can then observe an unknown substance’s melting point to see if the points are the same and try to figure out the unknown. Experimental Section: The first known substance we used was Biphenyl. 68 degrees Celsius is the known melting point. We used the capillary

MIP experiment on the melting temperature of different polymers 8.1 Compare and comment on the results obtained. LDPE has the lowest average melting temperature (103.6°C) out of the 4 polymers. It is because LDPE is a linear polymer that has a branched structure which is able to expel the applied heat faster through the “branches” and melt faster.
