I. The purpose of this exercise is to understand the useful possibility of finding the melting points of a substance.
In finding the melting points of a substance you can determine…
1. A characterization of the sample, if the compound is known.
2. An original record of the range in order to allow future characterization to others, if the compound is new.
3. the purity of a compound.
II. No balanced equations available
