Also‚ the flame would produce more soot and there would probably be an odor from whatever was cooked in the oil before it was used in the candle. Results of the tests showed that the candle made from 100 percent paraffin wax had the lowest melting rate‚ lowest

    Lab 8 Lab Eight: Identification of Hydrocarbons Organic Chemistry 311 Abstract: Unknown hydrocarbon K was identified by using purification‚ determination of boiling point by using the capillary tube technique‚ the calculation of density and obtained refractive index value from the Abbe-3L refractometer. The density was not useful due to an error of the machine but the boiling point and refractive index were used to confirm that the unidentified hydrocarbon K was 2‚2 Introduction Thrush
