Specific Heat Lab Objective: Find the specific heat of the unknown metal given using calorimetry. Background Theory: In every reaction‚ energy is transferred between a system and its environment. A system encompasses the substances that are involved in a reaction‚ and everything else in the universe other than the system is called the environment. The standard SI unit of energy is Joules (J). Temperature is the level of excitement of the atoms in a substance. In most cases‚ energy is

Polymer Chemistry Classification of Polymers – Notes prepared by The most common way of classifying polymers is to separate them into three groups - thermoplastics‚ thermosets‚ and elastomers5. The thermoplastics can be divided into two types - those that are crystalline and those that are amorphous. You may click on the words in the diagram below to learn more about these classifications. Thermoplastics Molecules in a thermoplastic are held together by relatively weak intermolecular

Experiment 12: Calorimetry and Hess’s Law Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to determine the enthalpy of reaction for the burning of one mole of magnesium in oxygen. Although the reaction is exothermic‚ the ∆HRXN will be determined by using calorimetry and then using Hess’s Law to manipulate the data collected to yield the answer needed.

germinated seeds in a 10% solution of fuel‚ compared to other fuels whose percentage of germinated seeds decreased with higher concentrations of fuel. In addition‚ biodiesel was also synthesized and its heat of combustion was found through the use of calorimetry. The heat capacity for the calorimeter was based on the heat of combustion for ethanol‚ which was then used to determine the heat of combustion for biodiesel. The average heat of combustion for biodiesel was ∆Hcomb= -13090.83 kJ/mole‚ as opposed

Assignment On Engineering Materials (Glass) Introduction Glass is a non-crystalline solid material. Glasses are typically brittle‚ and often optically transparent. The most prevalent type of glass‚ used for centuries in windows and drinking vessels‚ is soda-lime glass‚ made of about 75% silica (SiO2) plus Na2O‚ CaO‚ and several minor additives. Often‚ the term glass is used in a restricted sense to refer to this specific use. [pic] [pic]Roman Cage Cup from the 4th century A.D. In

Whereas‚ the problem of KDML105 variety‚ the improvement of the local variety that has good quality and is not sensitive to light is the important target of Rice Improvement Project (Vanavichit et al‚ 2003). This improvement has led to the breeding of a new aromatic rice variety that can grow in irrigated areas with sufficient water for rice growing through the year. There was successful in 1997‚ when the Department of Agriculture certified three other cultivars of aromatic rice‚ namely‚ KlongLuang

Question How many calories per gram are contained in marshmallows? Introduction Food is the primary source of energy for all living organisms - it is used to replenish and supply energy to the body and provide the nutrients it needs to grow and thrive. In 1824‚ Nicolas Clement came up with the term “calorie” as a unit of heat energy (Calorie n.d.). In modern day‚ calories are often associated with food because the number of calories in food is the measure of how much potential energy that food
