Crystallization and Melting Points Organic Chemistry 221 9/19/2012 Intro/Purpose: The purpose of this lab was to use crystallization to separate a compound from a solvent and be able to choose the best solvent to do so. Then identify an unknown and verify purity using melting points. Solubility contributes to crystallization; because a solute has lower solubility at lower temperatures‚ which makes the solvent separate from the solution as a solid. This process is important to understand because

about the cold adaptation strategy of G. antarctica PI12‚ several studies were conducted to resolve the cold adaptation strategy of G. antarctica PI12. The adaptation of G. antarctica PI12 to cold shock and heat shock environments is reflected in their structural and biochemical characteristics. These characteristic such as the production of cold adapted enzymes‚ polyunsaturated fatty acids and cryoprotectant. The complex adaptation strategies of G. antarctica PI12 to low temperatures reviewed in the

Melting pointe determination #01 Introduction: Objective To learn how to obtain an accurate melting point using a MELTING POINT APPARATUS‚ then use them to draw eutectic curve and determine the eutectic point. Melting point of a solid is the temperature at which the solid and its liquid form are in equilibrium‚ i.e.‚ molecules move back and forth between the two states at the same rate‚ so both phases remain present. If the temperature of a solid is measured carefully as the solid is heated
