Melting Points Elizabeth McGrail Organic Chemistry I 25 January 2013 ABSTRACT The objectives of this lab are‚ as follows; to understand what occurs at the molecular level when a substance melts; to understand the primary purpose of melting point data; to demonstrate the technique for obtaining the melting point of an organic substance; and to explain the effect of impurities on the melting point of a substance. Through the experimentation of three substances‚ tetracosane‚ 1-tetradecanol and

1: MELTING POINT AND BOILING POINTS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS ABSTRACT The properties of organic compounds depend on their chemical structures. Intermolecular forces of attraction affect physical properties such as melting and boiling point. Through the Thomas Hoover apparatus‚ the melting point of 8 test compounds was determined. Salicylic acid exhibited the highest melting point while naphthalene‚ the lowest. The stronger the intermolecular forces of attraction‚ the higher the melting point. Boiling

Results My unknown sample was number 18. I did three melting point trials‚ which resulted in a melting point range of approximately 120°C to 122°C‚ as shown in Table 1. I also did two mixed melting point trials using Benzoic Acid and Succinimide‚ as shown in Table 2. Percent recovery is 28.26 grams.

Introduction The purpose of the experiment was to determine the melting points of compounds using a Mel-Temp device. The melting point of naphthalene‚ urea‚ and sulfanilamide are found. This is then followed by the measuring of an unknown compound‚ and an impure sample (a small amount of naphthalene mixed with the unknown). Experiment In the lab‚ the height of the chemical in the capillary was set to 2-3 mm thickness. The voltage at the Mel-Temp started at a low setting of 1.5-2. The heat was

Mixture Melting Points Abstraction Determining the melting point is very significant in order to identify an unknown. In this experiment‚ measuring the melting point was done by using melting point apparatus. The melting point of the unknown sample #10 was 111.5˚C. There were two possible compounds which were dibenzoyl ethylene and o-Toluic acid because their melting points were 111.2˚C and 109.8˚C when each compound was mixed with the unknown. Therefore‚ the unknown #10 was dibenzoyl ethylene

DETERMINATION OF BOILING POINTS Introduction: The boiling point of a compound is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a gas. This is a physical property often used to identify substances or to check the purity of the compound. It is difficult‚ though‚ to find a boiling point. Usually‚ chemists can only obtain a boiling range of a 2 - 3oC accuracy. This is usually sufficient for most uses of the boiling point. Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the boiling points

Introduction The melting point is defined as the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid‚ and this characteristic is very unique‚ so a substance can be determined by the melting point. Determination of the melting point is very important technique in many areas of chemistry especially‚ in organic chemistry area because the melting point is really significant in order to identify the purity and the identity of a substance. Measuring the melting point is a fast and cost-effective
