A researcher accidentally spilled some sand into his beaker containing crystalline compound X. Knowing what he did about melting points, he was not worried about obtaining the melting point of compound X with a few grains of sand present. Why

See explanation

Explanation:

If we look at the structure of X, we will discover that X is an organic compound. The compound will certainly have a much lower melting point than sand.

This is because, sand is composed of high melting point inorganic materials.

Hence, even though the researcher accidentally spilled some sand into the the beaker containing the crystalline substance X, he does not need to be perturbed since the melting point of X is much lower than that of sand
