Finding the molar mass of unknown solute resulted in choosing the tetradecanol as a possible answer for this lab report. I picked this compound name because the molar mass of a solute was closest to the teradecanol number.
However, I think that my results deviated significantly from what I should get. I think that another possible answer for this experiment was a hexadecanol. During the experiment, my partner and I failed the first time to measure properly the freezing point of unknown solute, so we had to start over again. Also, during the second attempt, the thermometer was overheated. The molar mass of the unknown solute could be a bigger number than I have right now.
Therefore, this experiment showed me how to use the right equipment
