What do these results tell you and how would you use the results to determine the compunds identity and purity based on your melting point data?
Melting point is a physical property of a substance that is widely used to determine the identity and purity of a compound. A pure substance melts at a specific temperature, which is known as its melting point. Impurities present in a substance can lower its melting point, broadening its melting point range. The presence of impurities can also cause the melting point to be depressed and the range to be broader. Therefore, melting point can be used as an indicator of the purity of a compound.
