Suggest a suitable experimental technique for each of the following problems. (a) Single crystal X-ray diffraction data

Question:

Suggest a suitable experimental technique for each of the following problems.

(a) Single crystal X-ray diffraction data show that a compound crystallizes as a dihydrate. How could you show that the bulk sample was anhydrous?

(b) The single crystal structure of a compound has been determined, and you wish to prepare the same polymorph in bulk in a series of syntheses over a period of several weeks. How can you ensure that the products fulfil this aim?

(c) Changing the conditions under which a compound X crystallizes leads to two batches of crystals with melting points of 97 and 99 8C, respectively. How can you show that the compounds are polymorphs?
