Background The melting point of a compound is the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid. A solid compounds changes to a liquid when the molecules acquire enough energy to overcome the forces holding them together. A mixture melting point is useful in confirming and used to indentify an unknown compound‚ which we will be doing in this particular experiment. Purpose Measure the melting points of pure benzoic acid and pure mandelic acid. Determine the eutectic composition
