Retort Stand and Thermometer

by: tom

This features a simple setup to measure the melting point of ice, which includes a retort stand, thermometer funnel, and flask. This method is not considered the most effective way to determine the melting point of ice, but it serves as an example of how such experiments can be conducted. The setup consists of a glass container with a metal rod inside that has a small amount of ice at the bottom. A thermometer is inserted into the container and connected to the metal rod, which helps regulate the temperature of the ice. As the ice melts, the temperature will change, allowing for accurate measurement of the melting point using the thermometer. The image also shows a simple filter setup that can be used in conjunction with this experiment to separate any impurities from the liquid being measured.
