INTRODUCTION
- Background of the Study
There are several material constants that can be used to describe a material for example, its specific gravity, light refraction, adsorption capacity, or chromatographic behaviour. The melting point is also one of these constants along with the boiling point and the solidification point. It is one of the import thermal characteristics that describe a materials, this can be measured with greats accuracy. Crystalline materials consist of extremely fine particles that dorm a certain regular 3- dimensional structures. These 3 – dimensional arrangements are referred to as lattice
