of Reaction – Hess’s Law Overview Hess’s Law states that the energy change for a reaction depends on the enthalpy of the reactants and products and is independent of the pathway of the reaction. In this experiment you will use calorimetry to measure the heats of reaction for three reactions: Reaction 1 Reaction Equation NaOH(s) → Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) Solid NaOH is dissolved in water 2 Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) + H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) Solutions of NaOH and HCl are mixed 3 NaOH(s) +

Thermodynamics – Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law I. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to verify Hess’s Law through the three reactions of NaOH and HCl‚ NH4Cl and NaOH‚ and NH3 and HCl. The sum of the enthalpies of the first two reactions should equal the enthalpy of the third reaction. II. Background Hess’s Law is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction from adding two or more preceding reactions. To determine the enthalpies of certain chemical reactions‚ the change

Name(s) Project Number Ben J. Kaiser S0510 Project Title Hess’ Law and Thermochemistry Abstract Objectives/Goals Background: Hess# law states that if a reaction can be carried out in a series of steps‚ the sum of the enthalpies for each step should equal the enthalpy change for the total reaction. This statement emphasizes the conservation not only of matter‚ but also of energy. If certain reactions are difficult to study‚ their enthalpy can be calculated from Hess# law. The purpose

Hess’ Law To find out the enthalpy change of Mg+ ½O2=MgO‚ we used a calorimeter‚ thermometer‚ 0.2 g of Mg‚ 0.2 g of MgO‚ and 2.0 M of HCl. We used a thermometer to measure the initial and final temperatures in Celcius. We recorded the initial temperature of the HCl. After we put the Mg or MgO into the calorimeter‚ we put in the HCl and covered it using a lid‚ mixed it around with the thermometer‚ and recorded the final temperature. We also used this method to find the enthalpies of the equations

energy and heat associated with chemical reactions and/or physical transformations. A reaction may release or absorb energy‚ and a phase may change‚ such as in melting and boiling. Thermochemistry focuses on these energy changes‚ particularly on the system ’s energy exchange with its surroundings. In combination with entropy determinations‚ it is used to predict whether a reaction is spontaneous or non-spontaneous‚ favourable or unfavourable. Chemical reactions can be divided into two based on the

Hess’s Law Mengyuan Wu (Millie) 7 January‚ 14 Aim: The purpose of this experiment is to determine the enthalpy change for the reaction: Introduction: It is impossible to measure the enthalpy change for this reaction directly because the process cannot be controlled. However‚ you can calculate this enthalpy change by using the Hess’s Law. Pre- lab Calculations: Calculation 1: Required Masses for Reaction The ratio of and is required to be 1:100 for Table 1: Calculation

Heat of Reaction and Hess’s Law Introduction: Hess’s Law is a very useful relationship that allows the calculation of the heat of reaction for reactions on paper (without carrying out an actual experiment of that particular reaction). You must first know the heats of reaction for related reactions that add algebraically to give the desired reaction. If it can be shown that reaction 1 + reaction 2 = reaction 3‚ then Hess’s Law states that H1 + H2 =H3. Thus‚ if you know the heats of reaction
