A pure white crystalline compound was found to melt at 112.5-113.0oC when taken on a melting point apparatus, and on further hea

ting, the liquid was found to turn brown at ca. 145-150 oC. The capillary containing the melted compound was set aside to cool, and resolidify. When the sample was retried, using the same capillary the sample melted at 133.6-154.5oC. Why is the melting point higher than 112°, and the range so wide?

According to the question, the determined melting point of the compound is 112.5-113.0oC. When the solidified compound was retried, the melting point was found to be 133.6-154.5oC. This greater range higher than  112°C is caused by reusing samples leads to errors.

A pure sample is known by its sharp melting point. A pure sample does not melt over a large range. We can see this in the predetermined melting points of the pure sample(112.5-113.0oC).

However, reusing a sample introduces errors because the pure sample may become contaminated leading to a larger and higher range of melting point (133.6-154.5oC) which is far above  112°C.

Based on the parameters set forth in your lab procedure, what is the ph you should observe when you added the hcl to water?.
Rzqust [24]

Acid has a pH below 7 while water has a pH of 7. A strong acid with a pH of roughly 3, HCl is. Water gets more acidic and loses pH in the range of 4-5 when HCl is added to it.

<h3>What is pH?</h3>

A substance's pH is a gauge of how basic or acidic it is. It is a measurement of the amount of H+ present in the solution. It is equivalent to the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions mathematically.

A solution is acidic if its pH value is less than 7, and basic if it is greater than 7. Acids have a lower pH because they contain more H+ ions. Strong acid hydrochloric acid has a pH between 2 and 3.

Water has no charge. Water becomes acidic in pH if any acid is introduced. Therefore, if HCl is given to water, the pH of the water will change to 3-5 depending on the acid content.

Is milk a solution, suspension, compound , colloid ?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

Colloids (heterogeneous)

The difference between a colloid and a suspension is that the particles will not settle to the bottom over a period of time, they will stay suspended or float. An example of a colloid is milk. Milk is a mixture of liquid butterfat globules dispersed and suspended in water.
