Furaneol, or strawberry furanone, is a natural organic compound used in the flavor and perfume industry because of its sweet strawberry aroma. The melting point of a solid is the temperature range at which it changes state from solid to Liquid. In Chemistry, the standard state of a material is its state at 1 bar (100 Kilopascals exactly An organic compound is any member of a large class of Chemical compounds whose Molecules contain Carbon. Garden strawberries are a common variety of strawberry cultivated worldwide [2] It is found in a variety of fruits and is partly responsible for the smell of fresh pineapple. [3]
