Question
Chapter 12, Problem 4E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Never remelt any sample and they don’t just cool and solidify in exactly the reverse manner that they heated and melted is to be explained.
Concept Introduction:
The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. This change occurs in atmospheric pressure and during melting point the two phases (solid and liquid) exist in equilibrium.
Usually take melting points in thin, closed-end tubes called capillary tubes, they are also called melting-point tubes or even melting-point capillaries.

- Cloth can be waterproofed by coating it with a silicone layer. This is done by exposing the cloth to (CH3)2SiCl2 vapor. The silicon compound reacts with OH groups on the doth to form a waterproofing film (density = 1.0 g/cm3) of [(CH3)2SiO]n, where n is a large integer number. n (CH3)2SiCl2 + 2n OH 2n Cl + n H2O + [(CH3)2SiO]n The coating is added layer by layer, with each layer of [(CH3)2SiO]n being 0.60 nm thick.
