What is Purification of Hydroxybenzoic Acid and 4-Bromoacetanilide about?

The experiment aimed to purify contaminated samples using distillation and recrystallization. Recrystallization was used to purify hydroxybenzoic acid and 4-bromoacetanilide, recovering 98% and 70% respectively. Distillation was used to purify 1-butanol, recovering 42%. The melting points of the purified samples matched literature values, confirming purification. Low recovery of 1-butanol may have been due to experimental error in measurements.
