There is an assignment on right now for organic chemistry students. You may end up getting some questions through VR. They need to find a melting point for a chemical substance. They should start by looking at the resources listed under "Starting Sources for Physical Property Data". You can refer them to this subject guide: https://umanitoba.libapps.com/libguides/admin_c.php?g=297470&p=1993914 (It is the Organic Chemistry course guide under the Chemistry subject guide). They can also email me if they need more information.
The students also need to find a journal article with the melting point. The best resource is SciFinder for this type of search. There is a video on this same page (link on the left-hand side of the page) to "Using SciFinder to Find Property Data". Everyone needs to set up their own SciFinder account. There is a link to SciFinder on the course guide page as well.

Hello,
I'm on VR right now and it doesn't look like anyone is logged in as backup. It's not busy, I've only had to handle one question but I'm curious as to why I'm on my own. Thanks!
