F6/7 Chemistry Practical: Enthalpy of hydration of copper(II) sulphate Objective: To determine the enthalpy of hydration of copper(II) sulphate Group size: Individual Introduction This experiment enables an approximate determination of the enthalpy of hydration of copper(II) sulphate to be made. The enthalpy change when one mole of anhydrous copper(II) sulphate is dissolved in water is first determined. Secondly‚ the enthalpy of solution of copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate in water is determined

fluids before‚ during‚ and after a workout or race. Often athletes are not aware that they are losing body fluid or that their performance is being impacted by dehydration. If you are not sure how much fluid to drink‚ you can monitor your hydration using one of these methods. 1.Weight: Weigh yourself before practice and again after practice. For every pound you lose during the workout you will need to drink 2 cups of fluid to rehydrate your body. 2.Urine color: Check the

researchers published an empirical article called the “Comparison of the Effects of Hydration with Water or Isotonic Solution on the Recovery of Cardiac Autonomic Modulation”. The purpose of this study was to determine the importance of hydrating after strenuous activity. The ideal time that someone hydrates by drinking water‚ Gatorade‚ or any other sport drink is unclear. The researchers do know‚ however‚ that hydration helps with tolerance to strenuous activity because it helps regulate the body’s

Task 1: Assessment criterion 2.1 Determine the enthalpy change for the reaction (ΔHfθ) between zinc and copper sulphate solution‚ giving full practical details. Aim To determine the enthalpy change for the reaction between zinc and copper sulphate. Zn (s) + CuSO4 (aq) ZnSO4 (aq) + Cu (s) Introduction In the study of energy (thermodynamics) the system refers to the reacting chemicals (zinc and copper sulphate solution) and the surroundings is everything else (atmosphere

Iron powder will react with cupric sulfate in a onetoone ratio (1 mole to 1 mole). The students will also be able to more easily visualize the size of a mole of iron and copper. The result obtained in this lab usually have less than a one percent error. Fe(s) + CuSO4 (aq) > FeSO4(aq) + Cu(s) Iron powder cupric sulfate ferrous sulfate copper In the reaction‚ iron will be the limiting reagent; it will be completely used up in the reaction. Cupric sulfate will be in excess; not all of it will be used up in the reaction

Introduction Enthalpy change‚ ΔH‚ is defined as the heat output of a system as it goes through a reaction under constant pressure. It is an important aspect of thermochemistry‚ which is the study of energy changes during a chemical or physical reaction . When we calculate enthalpy change‚ we always assume that the pressure is constant. We are able to calculate enthalpy change numerous ways‚ notably by the increase in heat‚ Q‚ given by an exothermic reaction or the heat absorbed by an endothermic

OBSIDIAN HYDRATION There are two ways of Obsidian Hydration. One is to determine if the artifact is older or younger as the other is a calendar date of AD/BC being used. The decision of which one to use is relative or absolute dating depends on the environment’s condition. The dating of Obsidian Hydration artifacts‚ which is based on the fact that a freshly made surface of obsidian will absorb water from it’s surroundings to form a measurable hydration layer. For example‚ cracking of the lava

happen when you put zinc in copper II sulfate? • What will happen when you put copper in copper II sulfate? Predictions: • We can predict that zinc will react with the aqueous solution of copper II sulfate and we will notice a reaction. We can also predict that the copper will not react with the solution of copper II sulfate and no reaction will be noticed. Hypothesis: • It is hypothesized the zinc metal will have a precipitation reaction with the solution of copper II sulfate‚ because zinc is more reactive
