What effect on melting point would be observed if a very high bp solvent like methylnaphthalene was used in a recrystalization and traces of it were left unevaporated in the purified material?
Melting point and boiling point are one of the colligative properties. When we have high boiling liquid as a contaminant with some crystals the melting point of pure crystals decreases. At the melting point there is a phase change and it is in equilibrium and hence change in Gibss free energy is zero. Change in enthalpy is compensated by a change in entropy.
Thus in the case of pure solid, there is no relative change in entropy. Whereas, when there is an impurity of high boiling point is present in the solid crystals the change in entropy is very high. This means the denominator in the above equation is increasing. and to compensate for this change in enthalpy should be decreased. So the energy required to melt the impure solid is less than that of the pure solid. Thus when there is an impurity of high BP present in the crystals it will decrease the melting point.

a) An Organic compound is largely non-polar and thus quite soluble in pentane (b.p. 36 degrees C). Why would pentane be a poor choice for thermal cycling recrystallization? Suggest a different solvent in which the recrystallization would proceed better? b) What effect on the melting point would be observed if a very high BP solvent (like methylnaphthalene) was used in a recrystallization and traces of it were left unevaporated in the purified material?
Recrystallization/Melting Point 2-ethoxybenzamide is the unknown. 1. Adding enough solvent to achieve a “saturated” solution is necessary for recrystallization. a. What is the problem with adding too much solvent? b. What is the problem with adding too little solvent? 2. Why is fluted filter paper preferred over standard conical filter paper for the filtration of the recrystallized solid? 3. What is the purpose of adding boiling stones when heating solutions to a boil? 4. Name 2 requirements that must be...
What would you expect the observed boiling point to be at 10 torrs of a liquid which has a boiling point of 300 °C at 760 torrs? (Use Figure) Would it be possible to establish the composition of an unknown binary mixture of two substances from mixture melting-point data? Explain. After recording the R values using as a solvent system ethyl acetate and hexane (1:4), determine what solvent system is needed to obtain values between 0.3-0.4 for each of the...

Powder (shor sten FUNNELS Fitering (long stem 63 Chapter 4 Melting Points, Boiling Points, and Refractive Indices Questions 1. What effect would poor circulation of the melting point bath liquid have on the observed melting point? 2. What is the effect of an insoluble impurity, such as sodium sulfate, on the observed melting point of a compound? 3. Three test tubes, labeled A, B, and C, contain substances with approxi- mately the same melting points. How could you prove the...
Post lab questions for chromatography and melting point lab. i have a few ideas of what the answers to these questions should be, but I would like to double check. if anyone can help me, that would be so awesome. Thank you! A student cools a sample in a capillary tube after melting it. Upon attempting to determine the melting point on the same sample, the student does not obtain the same melting point. Why? A student places his TLC...
6. Suppose you are told that a particular solid has a high melting point. What other information would you need about the properties of the solid in order to distinguish whether that solid is a covalent network solid, a metallic solid, or an ionic solid? Explain your reasoning.

Provide a brief rationale for why ( Please help me answer all questions please this is SO important) When benzoic acid is mixed with inorganic sand, what happens to the melting point of the sample? 6. a. It increases b. It decreases c. It stays the same. d. It increases above the actual melting point then decreases. e. It goes below the eutectic point 7. In thin-layer chromatography, the observed Rr will change upon changing any of the following parameters...
