A student was trying to prepare acetaminophen in the laboratory. She found a melting point range of 169-173. The melting of acetaminophen is reported to be 168-172c. How could the student have verified that the produce is acetaminophen? Retake the sample melting point with more material in the sample. Ask the lab partner to measure the melting point of the sample. Take a mixed melting point with an authentic sample of acetaminophen
Two samples have exacted the 1 point same melting points, so the samples are: If the mixture has the same melting point of the two samples then the compounds identical to each other (Same compounds). The same intermolecular forces. The same structure Different to each other's.
Consider the following scenario: a small amount of a solid got into a sample when preparing the capillary tube to determine its melting point. The student decided to take the melting point anyway. The student observes the following: (a) a sharp melting point (<2oC); (b) a melting point that closely matches the literature reported value. Which of the following conclusions will not be justified by the experimental results. The solid was a soluble impurity in the liquid phase. The solid was an insoluble impurity in the liquid phase. The solid was a sample of the same compound.
1. Which aqueous solution will boil at the highest temperature? a. 1.0 m CaCl2 b. 0.5 m C6H12O6 c. 0.5 m AlCl3 d. 1.0 m C2H5OH 2. Rank the following with increasing acidity: CH3OH, HCl, NH3, and CH4 3. Select the correct molecule with the lowest surface tension. a. CH3CH2CH2OH b. CH3CH2CH2NH2 c. CH3CH2CH2CH3 d. CH3CH2CH2Cl
Sam knows that he has one of 3 possible liquid unknowns: tetrahyrofuran (bp 65-67°C), ethyl acetate(bp 76-77°C), or toluene (bp 110-111°C). He sets up for a microscale bp determination and clamps thewhole shebang in a water bath. Fifteen minutes late the water is boiling like crazy, but he has yet tosee a single vapor bubble escape from the capillary tube. He double-checks his set-up and everythingis fine so now he’s totally confused. What must his unknown be and why? Break it to him gently…hedoesn’t want to feel like a total idiot.
