Activity to determine the boiling point of an organic compound
Answers
Answer:
Practicaly we do. Any organic compound take and detection of elements, tests of functional group, and special test then use boiling method like simple distillation we can use nitro benzene, capillary tube methods use like we determine ethenol bp is 78°c and toluene bp is 110.6°c,and crystalline method also used
Answer:
Simple distillation experimental set-up with a thermometer clapmed into the distillation flask is only required.
Explanation:
The required organic compound whose boiling point needs to be found out is taken in the distillation flask. It's then fitted with a one holed cork, through which the thermometer is inserted into the distillation flask. It should be madein sure that the thermometer does not touch the organic compound, but is just near the outlet of the distillation flask, through which the compound distilles out.
When the flask is heated and temperature reaches near to the compound's boiling point, few drops containing the liquid distillates with impurities are removed and when it's observed that only the clear liquid distilles out, the temperature at that point is noted as the boiling point of that particular compound.
Hope this may help.
