In a recrystallization (a technique that you will encounter later in the semester), a solid is dissolved in a solvent and later the solvent is removed. if a mp of the sample is taken while the sample is still moist with solvent then melting point will not come out to be accurate, as solvent is still present in the compound and that results in the variation of the melting point as the residual solvent will serves as impurities , and due to the presence of these impurities, melting point vary and does not come to be accurate .
