Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy Curtis M. Franklin Thursday‚ February 14‚ 2013 ABSTRACT An ice calorimetric measurement was used to determine that a reaction involving solid magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid produces an experimental a value of ∆H = -226 ± 28 kJ/mol at 0°C. This is about 48.4% lower than the expected value reported at 25°C. Introduction Many chemical reactions exhibit themselves by exchanging heat energy‚ either be absorbing

Sodium was first discovered by Sir Humphrey Davy in 1807. This element is the 11th element found on the periodic table; located in group 1 and period 3. Its chemical symbol is Na and it is classified as a metal. Metals‚ by definition‚ means that they are elements that are luster‚ lose electrons very easily‚ malleable‚ ductile‚ and are great conductors of heat and electricity. Sodium is found in group 1 of the periodic table because the electronegativity of sodium is very low. This allows it to form

Analysis of a Metal Carbonate Lab Objective: In this lab we will determine the identity of a group 1 metal carbonate compound by gravimetric analysis. The unknown is weighed and dissolved in water and the precipitate is filtered‚ dried‚ and weighed. From the data the formula weight and identity of the unknown metal carbonate is determined. Lab Procedure: 1. Set up the Bunsen burner and ring clamp‚ light the burner and heat the crucible. 2. Add 2g of unknown carbonate to the crucible and

That is where hydrogen fuel cells come into the picture. Rather than depending on a foreign countries oil‚ to provide fuel‚ businesses today should look to hydrogen as an alternative fuel source. The United States is too dependent on foreign oil. If something were to happen‚ like another war with the Middle East‚ we would not have any oil to power our cars or heat our homes. That’s why hydrogen is the answer. Everybody could make their own fuel for their country by creating hydrogen plants and buying

Enclosures: (1) Data Record (2) Data Treatment (3) Environment Impact Research After hours of vigorous examination‚ we have come to the conclusion that calcium chloride (CaCl2) would be the best deicer to use on a naval base over sodium chloride (NaCl) and ethylene glycol (C2H6O2). In order to melt ice‚ deicers lower the freezing point so that the ice melts at lower temperatures. CaCl2 has a freezing point depression of 5°C‚ whereas NaCl has only a 3°C depression‚ and ethylene

Megan Entwistle‚ Maria Amos‚ and Paul Golubic CHEM 0330 Organic Lab 1 Sodium Borohydride Reduction: Diphenylmethanol from Benzophenone 11/16/11 Introduction Redox (shorthand for REDuction-OXidation) reactions are chemical reactions in which the oxidation state (or oxidation number) of atoms has changed. Oxidation can be observed through the loss of electrons or an increase in oxidation state by an atom‚ ion or molecule. Reduction describes the gain of electrons or decrease in oxidation state

Sodium is a metal from group 1 of the periodic table‚ this is a metal which reacts when it needs to‚ this metal has a low melting and boiling point‚ also it is very dense‚ this shows that when reacting with other substances it will be different and this is because it will not react the same the whole time. The other thing is that this elements electron configuration is 11 which is quite low when comparing them to the other elements in the periodic table. However this metal is more reactive than
