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

Title Freezing and Melting Point Objectives 1. To gain proficiency in constructing a graph and plotting data points. 2. To determine the freezing points of a compound from the graph of decreasing temperature versus time. 3. To determine the melting points of a known and unknown compound. Introduction Physical changes are the changes in the physical properties of a substance (Moore‚ Stanitski & Jurs‚ 2009). Freezing point is the fixed temperature at which a pure liquid converted into crystalline

Name Lab Report 1 – June 10‚ 2014 Lab # 4: Melting Point lab Partner: Instructor: The Testing of the Melting Points of p-dichlorobenzene and naphthalene Introduction: Melting point temperature is a physical property of pure substances. It is an intensive property‚ which means the amount of material tested is irrelevant. This lab will determine the melting point temperatures of two known pure substances‚ naphthalene and p-dichlorobenzene‚ using micro-sized quantities and a capillary

RECRYSTALLIZATION AND MELTING POINT DETERMINATION OF BENZOIC ACID ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS 1. How does the use of fluted filter paper hasten filtration? Why is it advisable to place a small piece of wire between the funnel and the mouth of the flask during hot filtration? Fluted filter paper is effective in preventing crystal formation in the filter paper. It is also often used in filtering hot saturated solution used during crystallization. One major advantage of a fluted filter is that it increases

Esteva Group 4 2B Medical Technology Organic Chemistry Laboratory ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ acetanilide was used as the pure organic compound. Acetylation of aniline and acetic anhydride yields the crude product or crude acetanilide. The crude acetanilide was purified by dissolving it in hot water and then the solution was cooled slowly by placing in

Pure and impure solids were tested to see what affect pureness/impureness had on a melting point. Background: The melting point of a solid can be used to determine the purity of the solid. Pure samples usually have

Spectroscopy‚ Boiling point and Melting point. Introduction: - Infrared spectroscopy has also made a break though in medicine. It used to evaluate the kidney stone diseases thus broadening the use of IR in different ways. The purpose of this lab experiment is to identify the unknown solutions using the Infrared Spectroscopy (IR)‚ boiling point‚ and melting point (1). The IR helps to determine the compounds such as a functional group. In order to analyze the compound‚ IR and melting point work the best together

The objective of this lab was to identify an unknown compound by determining the melting point range using fast and slow ramps. Also‚ to determine the eutectic point of Urea and Cinnamic Acid. An unknown compound that was numbered 8 was chosen. A small amount of the unknown compound was placed in a weighing paper using a spatula. The weighing paper was folded in half twice and then was grinded using a spatula. After the unknown compound was grinded about 1-2mm was added into a capillary tube. A
