Hello! i was looking for some advice on my organic chemistry lab. we were supposed to separate and identify a solid mixed into a liquid. i found and have confirmed my liquid is acetone by distilling it out of the solid. the solid then turned into a whitish powder while in the round bottom flask.
the part that worries me is that i couldn t get the powder out easily, so i am worried it is impure. is the distillation enough to get all the liquid out, or should i perform some other purification method or even redo the distillation? !
