determination of molecular mass by victor meyers method

Victor Meyer's method is used for the determination of molecular masses of volatile substance..

The molecular mass of a compound is essential to determine its molecular formula. Molecular mass of an organic compound is determined by a number of methods..

Silver salt method is used for determining the molecular masses of carboxylic acids. This method is based on the fact that they form insoluble silver salts, which upon heating decompose to leave a residue of metallic silve..

In order to determine the molecular mass of unknown non volatile compound, a known mass (say w g) of the compound is dissolved to prepare a known volume (say v liters) of solution. The osmotic pressure of the solution is determined and the molar ..

A liquid (water), having boiling point about 20 to 30C higher than that of the given liquid (whose molecular mass is to be determined) is poured into the outer jacket so as to fill its bulb up to one-third its capacity. Cleaned and dried Victor Meyer..

The mass percentage of each constituent element present in any compound is called its percentage composition. This may be obtained from the molecular formula of the compound by using the relationship:..

Organic compounds are isolated either from natural sources or from reaction mixtures. These compounds are seldom pure and are usually contaminated with small amounts of other similar compounds, which are found to exist together or formed during the reaction. In order to characterize them, it is imp..
