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
