Question
Chapter 3.3, Problem 8E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Modifications that can be made in capillary tube to obtain melting point of compound that sublimes before it melts should be determined.
Concept introduction:Melting point is temperature that involves conversion of substance from solid to liquid state. Both liquid and solid phases are present in equilibrium with each other at this temperature.

Due to the fact that the liquid you used was a volatile one, it will not completely recondense. Some of the liquid remains in the vapor phase, even at room temperature. If you were able to correct for this by making the vapors recondense completely, would your final molar mass value be greater than, less than or the same as the value you determined? Explain your reasoning.
A student obtained a solid product in a laboratory synthesis. To verify the identity of the solid, she measured its melting point and found that the material melted over a 12 degrees Celsius range. After it had cooled, she measured the melting point of the same sample again and found that this time the solid had a sharp melting point at the temperature that is characteristic of the desired product. Why were the two melting points different? What was responsible for the change in the melting point?
Would the method used for determining the vapor pressure of water be applicable in the determination of the vapor of a volatile liquid such as ethanol? If so, explain what change/s you would make in the experiment.
