About this document
Melting Point of Impure Benzoic Acid by Pau Vanadero is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) The document discusses sublimating impure benzoic acid to purify it and determine the difference in melting points between pure, impure, and a mixture of benzoic acid. 2) Five grams of impure benzoic acid was sublimated, collecting 0.51 grams of purified crystals, yielding a 10.2% recovery rate. 3) Melting point tests found the purified crystals had a melting point of 1240-1260°C, identical to pure benzoic acid, indicating purification was successful.
