The Enthalpy Change of the Decomposition of Calcium Carbonate _INTRODUCTION_ RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the enthalpy change of the decomposition of calcium carbonate? BACKGROUND: Enthalpy in chemistry can be thought of as the energy contained within the bonds‚ or the internal energy‚ but it is not heat and you can only measure changes in it. When bond bonds break in the reactants energy is given off‚ when bonds form‚ energy is absorbed. If the energy absorbed is less than the energy released

Abstract In this experiment‚ the Ksp for calcium sulfate dihydrate‚ CaSO4·2H2O‚ by titrating 4 times a calcium sulfate dihydrate solution with diprotic EDTA‚ H2(EDTA)2-. For each trial we found the Ksp by means of molarities and activities. The results for the Ksp using only molarities was very different than the Ksp using activities. The average Ksp using molarity only was 2.26 x 10-4 and the average Ksp using activity turned out to be 2.31 x 10-5. The actual Ksp however‚ is 3.14 x 10-5. A percent
