Conditions:
Room Temp: -2.015 - -0.286 °C
Compiler:
Methodology:
Freezing point determinations were made with a Beckmann apparatus having a thermometer graduated in 0.01 °C. The magnesium content was determined gravimetrically.
Sample Information:
- Kahlbaum or Merck reagents were used.
Measurement Errors:
Ambient temperature: ±0.01°C.
System Components:
- Magnesium formate, $\ce{ Mg(CHO2)2 }$; [557-39-1] NIST WebBook
- Water, $\ce{ H2O }$; [7732-18-5] NIST WebBook
