    • 10 Pages

    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

    Candy Au Introduction The reaction between zinc and copper (II) sulphate is endothermic. If an excess of zinc powder is added to a measured amount of aqueous copper (II) sulphate in a calorimeter and the temperature change is recorded over a period of time‚ the enthalpy change of the reaction can be experimentally determined. Assumption 1. Mass of H2O in 100cm3 of CuSO4 solution is 100g 2. Specific heat of solution is 4.18 kJ kg-1 K-1 which is the same as the specific heat of water

    used and extracted‚ we could run out of oil in 50 years. We need to conserve what fuels we have left and stop using them in our cars. Another big problem with burning fossil fuels‚ especially gasoline‚ is the damage it causes to the environment. Combustion of fuels in cars has been identified as the largest contributor to air pollution in the world.

    Heats of Combustion of Alkanols Aim: To perform a first-hand investigation to determine the heats of combustion of selected alkanols. Hypothesis: It was predicted that methanol would have the highest molar heat of combustion‚ decreasing as the chains become longer. Equipment: • Three spirit burners containing methanol‚ ethanol and propan-1-ol respectively • Electronic scales • Water • 100ml measuring cylinder • Retort stand and boss-head clamp • Copper beaker • Thermometer Method:

    Heat of Combustion Questions 1. When bonds are broken‚ energy is required. When bond are formed‚ energy is released. All combustion reactions are exothermic. Suggest a reason for this in terms of the bonds broken and bonds formed. The energy required to break the bonds is greater than the energy required to form. 2. Explain why the heat of combustion of alkanols increases as the length of the carbon chain increases. The heat of combustion of alkanol increases as the length of carbon chain
