In an organic chemistry laboratory in denver colorado, a pure organic liquid is distilled by two students each has taken a sample from the same reagent bottle. one students reports a boiling point of 14 dregree below the actual boiling point of the liquid; the other studetns reports a boiling point 10 degree above the acutal boiling point of the liquid. one of the students has reported a correct boiling point while the other students has reported a incorrect boiling point and has probably made one or more common experimental errors. Which students has reported the correct boiling point? what are som possible errors the student could have made?

The organic compound trans-anethole is found in many oils/flavorings. This compound has a melting point of 50. ∘F. On Tuesday (this is a true story), a friend left a small vial of this compound in her back seat of her car outside for an hour and it solidified. At what temperature in ∘C does this compound freeze? We used this flavoring to make a holidy candy flavored with anise.

Three samples labelled A,B, and C possess identical melting points: 99 degrees. When a 75/25 mixture of A and B is prepared, it’s melting point is 90-95 degrees. The melting point of a 50/50 mixture of A and C is 79-91 degrees. The melting point of a 25/75 mixture of B and C is 97-98 degrees. What information does this tell you about the identity of the 3 compounds? What would you expect an an approximate melting range for a 75/25 mixture of B and C?
