Determine whether each melting point observation corresponds to a pure sample of a single compound or to an impure sample with multiple compounds.

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Determine whether each melting point observation corresponds to a pure sample of a single compound or to an impure sample with multiple compounds.

Experimental melting point is BELOW literature value

Experimental melting point is CLOSE to literature value

WIDE melting point range

NARROW melting point range

narrow melting point-pure sample of a single compound

experimental melting point is close to literature value-pure sample of a single compound

wide melting point range-impure sample of multiple compounds

experimental melting point is below literature value-impure sample of multiple compounds

Explanation:

The experimental melting point of a pure single compound is sharp and extremely close to the melting point of the substance as recorded in the literature. Usually, a pure substance melts within a narrow range of temperatures.

Impure samples of multiple compounds melt over a range of temperatures. Also if the experimental melting point is well below the record in literature, then the sample is contaminated by other compounds.

definition

                    entropy is a measure of the randomness or the extent of disorder of a chemical process.

                      enthalpy is a measure of the heat change of a reaction occurring at a constant pressure.

measurement units:

                        entropy is measured in joule per kelvin (jk⁻¹)   whereas enthalpy is measured in joule per mole (jmol⁻¹)

requirements:

                            entropy has no requirements or limits, and its change is measured by the division between the heat change of the chemical process and the temperature.

                              in contrast, enthalpy can only be related to the heat change of the reaction under standard conditions.
