So, I did Triphenylmethanol and Benzoic Acid lab experiment. I started with 1.4918g. Mass after experiment was 0.168g. My melting point recorded was 105.2- 117.0.

After that, I did recrystallization by re-dissolving my crude product in warm water. After everything, I discovered my pure product to be 0.0162. My melting point was 96.5-104.9. 1. Why is my second melting point low? 2. What is the theoritical and percentage yield. 3. how does the instrumental analyses inform the product purity?
