A student conducts this experiment and finds the boiling point of the unknown to be 80 ± 3 °C. Use the table in the Physical Properties experiment to select all of the following compounds which might be the unknown
See your post above.
To determine which compounds might be the unknown substance, we need to compare the boiling point range of the unknown (80 ± 3 °C) with the boiling points of the compounds listed in the Physical Properties experiment table.
Here's how you can do it:
1. Make a list of the compounds in the table that have boiling points within the range of 80 ± 3 °C.
2. Compare the boiling points of the compounds listed in the table with the range of 77 to 83 °C (80 ± 3 °C).
3. Identify the compounds whose boiling points fall within the range.
4. Note down the names of those compounds as potential candidates for the unknown substance.
By following these steps, you will be able to find the compounds that might be the unknown substance based on their boiling points.
