What are the four important steps needed to obtain accurate meting points on a mel-temp?

a)grind the sample some.

b)grind the sample into a fine powder.

c)put the smallest amount you can see in a capillary tube.

d)fill the capillary tube with about 3mm of powder

e)set the voltage to rise quickly to 20 degree below the expected temperature, then re adjust so the temp rises at 2 degree per minute.

f)set the voltage to rise quickly to 20 degree below the expected temperature, then re adjust so the temp rises at 10 degree per minute.

g)record the temp at which liquid first appears and the temp at which the last crystal disappears.

h)record the temp at which the sample completely melts and the temp when it boils.

Explanation:

The four (4) important steps that are needed to obtain an accurate melting point is given as;

•First is Grinding: Grind the sample into fine powder.

•Second is Filling: Fill the capillary tube with about 3mm of powder

•Third is Adjusting the temperature: Set the voltage to rise quickly to 20° below the expected temperature, then re-adjust so the temperature rises at 2° per minute.

•Lastly is Observation and recordings: Record the temperature the temperature at which liquid first appears and the temperature at which the last crystal disappears.

I hope this helps, cheers.

explanation:

periodic trends is an atom that gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase, the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. in general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to right of a certain period.
