Benefits of Hydration The body is made up of around 75% water. Keeping the body adequately hydrated is a must to ensure good health especially in athletes. Sometimes proper hydration is difficult for people if they do not prefer the taste of water. This can lead to serious problems with their health. Determining your hydration can be simply done in two ways. One way to determine your hydration is to examine your urine. If you are properly hydrated it will appear pale yellow or sometimes clear

the Enthalpy of a Chemical Reaction All chemical reactions involve an exchange of heat energy; therefore‚ it is tempting to plan to follow a reaction by measuring the enthalpy change (∆H). However‚ it is often not possible to directly measure the heat energy change of the reactants and products (the system). We can measure the heat change that occurs in the surroundings by monitoring temperature changes. If we conduct a reaction between two substances in aqueous solution‚ then the enthalpy of

GRAVIMETRIC DETERMINATION OF SULFATE Purpose You will be given a solid powder‚ which has been dried to constant mass. The sample is water soluble. The purpose of this experiment is to determine the concentration of sulfate in your solid sample using gravimetric analysis. Background Gravimetric Analysis The goal of most quantitative chemical analysis measurements is to estimate the relative abundance of an analyte in a chemical sample. For solid and liquid samples‚ a very common expression

Enthalpy of Neutralization Introduction Energy changes always accompany chemical reactions. If energy‚ in the form of heat‚ is liberated the reaction is exothermic and if energy is absorbed the reaction is endothermic. Thermochemistry is concerned with the measurement of the amount of heat evolved or absorbed. The heat (or enthalpy) of neutralization (∆H) is the heat evolved when an acid and a base react to form a salt plus water. Eq. 1 HNO2(aq) + NAOH(aq) → NaNO2(aq) + H2O(l) + Q Q in the

LAB OF ENTHALPY CHANGE IN COMBUSTION Objective: Determine the Enthalpy change of combustion ΔHc of three different alcohols. Methanol‚ Ethanol and Isopropilic acid. Procedure: 1. Fill the spirit micro burner with Ethanol and weight it 2. Pour 100 cm3 of water into the aluminum cup 3. Arrange the cup a short distance over the micro burner 4. Measure the temperature of water 5. When the temperature of the water has risen by 10°C‚ record the temperature. 6. Reweight

Determination of the Waters of Crystallisation/ Water of Hydration‚ In Hydrated copper (II) Sulphate Introduction In nature there are some salts that will have water in their crystalline structure. These salts are commonly known as hydrated salts. Hydrated Copper (II) sulphate is one of these‚ as suggested by the use of the word hydrated in its name. Its molecular structure is shown below. The water that is chemically combined into their structure is called the water of crystallisation.

The Effects and Benefits of Proper Hydration on the Human Body The essentiality of water for life is inarguable. It makes up roughly sixty percent of the human body and affects every aspect of human health. Humanity depends on water for survival‚ but staying hydrated is essential for so much more than just keeping us alive. The benefits of drinking recommended amounts of water‚ or staying hydrated‚ can be seemingly endless. Something as cheap‚ easy‚ and effective as drinking eight glasses of water

Today‚ I will be arguing the claim that withdrawing artificial nutrition and hydration is not morally different from other types of life-sustaining treatments. I will cover what each procedure is‚ how each procedure is performed‚ and the risks/benefits of these procedures. With that information‚ I can assess how each of these treatments

explore the cycle of copper through many chemical reactions. What we are going to do is take a piece of copper metal put it through a series of reactions that change it¡¦s state of matter and chemical formula‚ but in the end‚ we will return it to it¡¦s normal solid state. Determine the percentage yield (quantitative). Define what happen at level of electron for oxidation/reduction‚ double replacement‚ neutralization and decomposition. There are five reactions that the copper will go through. 1
