Conclusion: The melting and freezing points of napthalene are the same, that is 60°C. ‘An experiment was carried out to determine the melting point of acetamide. - Solid acetamide was heated in a water bath until it melts completely. - Water bath used to ensure even heating. - Stir acetamide continuously during heating to ensure accuracy of the reading. Taken - The melting point of sodium chloride cannot be determined using this method because sodium chloride has a melting point above the maximum temperature of water bath which is 100°C. 2.3 Structure of the Atom Nucleon —{4 number - Valence electrons are electrons in the outermost shell of an atom eat 6 Element | Proton | Electron Froton —[z number | arrangement 4.
