Ailine Veiga Question: what is the heat of fusion of ice? Hypothesis: To get the heat of fusion of ice we need to determine the Energy it takes to melt the ice and also the mass of the ice and determine the heat of fusion. To determine the mass of the ice melted (m) we start by determine the volume of the water generated when the ice melted. This is the difference between the final volume (v2) and the initial volume (v1). Using the density of water (1.0g/mL)‚ this volume can be converted into mass

lab‚ we are now able to calculate the molar heat of combustion for paraffin‚ since we have the difference of the mass in candle before/after and the periodic table of elements (for converting g to moles of paraffin). Molar heat of combustion = (kJ of heat)/(mole of fuel) However‚ we do not know how much heat was released nor the mole of fuel (paraffin). In order to find the amount of heat released‚ we use the formula: g=mcΔT. Here‚ g represents the heat‚ m represents the mass of water‚ ΔT represents

sulphate is dissolved in water is first determined. Secondly‚ the enthalpy of solution of copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate in water is determined. ‚ Thirdly‚ the enthalpy of hydration of copper(II) sulphate is evaluated by using Hess’s Law of Constant Heat (Enthalpy) Summation. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Theory: 1. Define the terms ’enthalpy of solution’ and ’enthalpy of hydration’. 2. [pic] is the enthalpy

situation for thick pipes is‚ however‚ more complex. [pic] The figure shown above represents the condition in a thick walled pipe. The area for heat flow is proportional to the radius – as may be seen‚ the area at the outside wall of the pipe is much greater than the middle. As a result the temperature gradient is inversely proportional to the radius. The heat flow ‘per unit length of pipe’ at any radius r‚ is [pic] cf.

Bill Gates: Leader and Role Model William Cook COLL/148 August 14‚ 2011 Barbara Goldberg Bill Gates is an effective leader and leadership role model and he is my choice for a role a model. Bill Gates has demonstrated and employed good leadership skills to be a successful business man. He has also demonstrated why he is a good role model for those who want to become leaders themselves. I believe that I share many of the leadership traits with Bill Gates and that those traits will help me in

Steel and heat treatment MILD STEEL Mild steel is also called plain carbon steel. It is the most common type of steel and it price is pretty low. Its composition is around about 0.05%-0.29% carbon content. Mild steel has a relatively low tensile strength but the surface can be hardened through carburizing. It is mostly used where large amounts of steel needs to be formed eg structural steel MEDIUM CARBON STEEL Medium carbon steel has great wear resistance and is used for forged automotive
