Hydrogen Bonding

Purpose:
The purpose of this investigation is to test the concept of hydrogen bonding.

Hypothesis:
Given the concept of hydrogen bonding I predict that the bulky glycerol molecules limits the number of possible hydrogen bonds. If water is mixed with glycerol should make it possible for water to form many hydrogen bonds with the glycerol molecules, causing it to become a exothermic reaction. Because glycerol has more possibilities for hydrogen bonding I believe that it will have the most energy change.

Materials:
-Lab apron-Safety glasses -250 ml beaker
-Tap water-Ethanol -Glycerol
-10 ml graduated cylinder - Two Styrofoam cups
-Paper lid for cups -Thermometer

Procedure:
Refer to lab sheet.

Observations: | Volume (mL) | Ti(c) | Tf(C) | T | Ethanol | 10 | 26 | 30 | 4 | Water | 10 | 26 | 30 | 4 | Glycerol | 10 | 26 | 27 | 1 | Water | 10 | 26 | 27 | 1 |

Questions:
1. How do your observations support your hypothesis? Where you correct or incorrect? Why?
Given my hypothesis I was incorrect, the Ethanol proved to have more of an energy change than the glycerol. n ethanol a hydrogen bond is formed between the oxygen of ethanol and one H-atom of water. The +I effect transfers the electronegativity towards the H- of -OH group.

2. Explain why the temperature increases in each case and explain why it increased more with one chemical than the other.
The increase of temperature was a result of the hydrogen bonding between the elements. Hydrogen bonding consists of the attraction of hydrogen atoms bonded to N, O or F atoms in adjacent molecules. Depending on the possibilities of hydrogen bonding and the solubility of the solution changes the energy transfer between elements.
3. Draw the structural diagram of water, ethanol and

    Both of the activities rise in temperature, showing the increase of the heat. This is because the reactants in the exothermic reactions had a greater amount of heat content than the products, and therefore producing a negative enthalpy. Activity B however created an endothermic reaction, absorbing heat from its surroundings, due to its lack of energy. Ammonium Chloride and Water had shown to have more products than reactants; and this consequently produced a positive enthalpy change. As Activity A and B produced exothermic reactions, they are most suitable for heat and eat packs. This is due to the fact that exothermic reactions project heat to its surroundings, and therefore heating the…

    However in covalent bonds the nuclei are positive and the electrons which are being shared are negative. The intermolecular forces in hydrogen chloride are Dipole-Dipole forces: The slightly negative end of another hydrogen chloride particle will become attracted to the other end of the particle which has a slight positive charge. Therefore the two dipoles will become drawn together because the electrons are not shared between the two particles of hydrogen chloride. Dipole-Dipole bonding is less powerful than hydrogen bonding because in water is polar which means that the molecules are more draw together therefore water has high melting and boiling points which is why water is more electronegative as the molecules are more drawn together than the molecules in hydrogen chloride. In the hydrogen chloride molecule the chloride has more electronegativity than hydrogen as a result the electrons are forced to go to the chloride atom instead of the hydrogen atom. The slightly negative end of another hydrogen chloride particle will become attracted to the other end of the particle which has a slight positive charge. Therefore the two dipoles will become drawn together because the electrons are not shared between the two particles of hydrogen chloride. The melting point of hydrogen chloride is -85.05 Celsius however water has a boiling point of 100 degrees. Therefore this proves that hydrogen bonding in water is more powerful than hydrogen chloride because water is more polarised than HCL. One of the properties of water is it has a higher boiling point than hydrogen chloride and hydrogen sulphide because more energy is needed to break the water molecules apart in hydrogen chloride. Properties: present when hydrogen chloride is added to water: HCL+H2O H3O+ + Cl−. The melting point of water is…

    Abstract: The purpose of this experiment is to study the energy changes associated with the phase changes of water. In this experiment we know the water is gaining energy so we know the heat is going to be positive and we can use the equation MCΔT to find the energy change. The specific heat will be 1 and we just have to measure the water to find the mass and take the temperature before and after we start to find the energy change.…
