    This document provides instructions for determining the melting point and boiling point of compounds. It outlines the steps to (1) prepare and seal capillary tubes with test compound samples for melting point determination using a Thomas Hoover apparatus, and (2) set up a Thiele tube filled with glycerol to determine boiling points by slowly heating and cooling samples in a capillary tube immersed in the glycerol. The document notes that the procedures are part of investigating intermolecular forces and the effects of purity on melting/boiling point ranges.

    I.

    Melting point

    (1) Prepare your test compounds (2)* Seal your capillary tubes using heat

    (3)* Using the capillary


    tubes, obtain small
    amounts of the solids
    until there is enough
    samples inside the tube.
    The height of the sample
    should be at least 5mm-
    6mm

    (4)* Place capillary tubes inside the


    Thomas Hoover apparatus for the
    determination of the melting point.

    Switch on the apparatus and adjust


    the heat and turn on the stirrer

    (5)* Record Temperature for each


    trials.

    NOTE:

    *Allow the silicone fluid to cool down first before performing another test

    *This schematic Diagram made will be used for the Intermolecular forces of attraction and the Effect of
    Purity on Melting Point Range
    II. Boiling Point

    Obtain a capillary tube


    Set-up your and heat it in the middle
    thiele tube part until it twists
    and fill up
    with glycerol

    Place your capillary


    tube in the micro test
    tube containing drops
    of your samples

    Place the micro test tube beside the


    thermometer (use a rubber tubing to
    hold the capillary tube)

    Immerse the thermometer in the


    glycerol and rapidly heat the glycerol
    until it produces bubbles

    Afterwards, remove the flame and


    allow the glycerol to cool down and
    as it cools down the liquid will start to
    enter the capillary tube. Record the
    temperature

    To determine the boiling point range,


    slowly reheat the test compound
    until the liquid comes out of the
    capillary tube. Record temperature

    Branching
