Answer:

193.5-195 °C.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the mixture is 50:50, we can infer that an average may be used to compute the required range; thus, we first compute the the inner limit by using 135 °C and 252 °C:

[tex]\frac{135+252}{2} =193.5\°C[/tex]

And the upper limit:

[tex]\frac{136+254}{2} =195\°C[/tex]

Thus, the average melting point would be around 193.5-195 °C.

Best regards!
