Question

How would having too much sample in the melting point tube most likely affect the melting point measurement? Select the correct answer?

Answer 1

2-4 mm height of capillary tube.

Explanation:

Sample should be around 2-4 mm in height.

It should be packed well so that it does not have air packets that caues the lowering of melting point.

If you take greater amount, then there will be needed more heat, resulting a wide range of melting point.
