Heat of Formation of Magnesium Oxide Objetive: To determine the heat formation of MgO (Magnesium Oxide) using Hess’s Law‚ which states the heat within a chemical reaction is independent of the pathway between the initial and final states. Introduction: Chemical reactions require heat energy to complete‚ called an endothermic reaction‚ or produce heat energy‚ and thus called an exothermic reaction. The heat energy produced by such reactions can be measured using a calorimeter‚ a piece

The Webster’s Dictionary defines calorimeter as‚ “an apparatus for measuring quantities of absorbed or emitted heat or for determining specific heats.” While direct calorimeters measure the amount of heat produced in a small chamber‚ indirect calorimeters measure the amount of heat produced by taking into account the amount of consumption of oxygen and elimination of carbon dioxide. Both contain the same concept‚ but have a different approach. Indirect calorimetry is the preferable way for physiologists

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

Determining an Enthalapy Change of Reaction Purpose of Experiment The purpose of this experiment is to determine the enthalapy change for the displacement reaction: Zn(s) + CuSO4(aq) Cu(s) + ZnSO4(aq) Hypothesis With this experiment I can also not make a hypothesis‚ because we did actually not do the experiment‚ but we were told that the temperature would make a sudden drop ‚ but we can measure the ΔT of the surrounding. The reaction is endothermic because the system will take in energy

Hess’ Law of Heat Summation Hess’ Law states that: "The enthalpy change for any reaction depends on the products and reactants and is independent of the pathway or the number of steps between the reactant and product". BASICALLY: Hess’ Law states "the heat evolved or absorbed in a chemical process is the same whether the process takes place in one or in several steps" >This is also known as the "law of constant heat summation". All it means is that no matter how many steps the chemical

Energetics Practical 2: To Determine the Enthalpy Change of a Reaction Background Calcium Carbonate‚ CaCO₃‚ decomposes with heat to form CaO and CO₂. The objective of this practical was to determine the enthalpy change for this reaction by using an indirect method based upon the foundation of Hess’ Law. Both calcium oxide and calcium carbonate react readily with 2 mol/dm3. The reaction can be demonstrated as so: CaCO₃ (s) -> CaO(s) + CO₂ (g) Results: Raw Data Calcium Carbonate Mass of CaCO₃
