    Combustion of Alkanols Aim: To determine which alkanols has higher heat combustion Hypothesis: The alkanols with the longer carbon chain will a higher heat combustion Background Information: Heat combustion can be calculated by using various formulas. By using ΔH= -mcΔT‚ we can gather the amount of heat released. Since the experiment is exothermic‚ ΔH will have a negative value. By dividing the total amount by 1000‚ the units changes into KJ. Divide the total KJ of heat by the amount of fuel

    experiment is to determine which fuel‚ out of Pentane‚ Propane-1-ol and Propane-2-ol would be the most appropriate to take on a camping trip to a national park where wood cannot be used to burn. Factors that need to be considered are: • Heat of combustion (flash point) • Heat of vaporisation (boiling point) • How long the fuel will last • Does the fuel heat up the water relatively quickly • Does the fuel combust completely Hypothesis: If the tests are all successful‚ Pentane should produce a larger

    In this lab‚ we will measure the heat of combustion‚ or calorimetry‚ of a candle and compare the found quantity with known values for other hydrocarbons. The calorific value is the total thermal energy released when a substance goes through complete combustion with oxygen. In order to achieve the purpose of this lab‚ we must first determine the mass of the tea candle. Then‚ we will determine our room temperature‚ measure about 100 mL of chilled water‚ and then pour the water into the given empty

    ¬¬¬¬In this lab‚ we explored the theory of combustion and used it to create and biodiesel. Diesel is a common fuel used to power many large trucks and heavy equipment (such as tractors and backhoes). Diesel fuel is made from crude oil that was formed over millions of years by the decomposition of prehistoric plants and animals. Through the use of an oil well‚ crude oil is pumped out of the ground and transferred (often by large ocean tankers) to oil distillation units. Crude oil contains widely varying
