    Snow Melting

    • 414 Words
    • 2 Pages

    as snow remains bright‚ the sunshine bounces off and is not retained to cause any melting. Two factors other than sunshine which directly spells the demise of snow are air temperatures above freezing and contact with dark material that absorbs the heat of the sun. Early in the spring‚ the air temperatures usually are not significant in the melting process‚ so sunshine by itself does little to deplete the winter’s accumulation of snow. But if you sprinkle some ashes‚ sand or other dark material on

    water‚ for example sodium and chloride. ‘Thermo’ comes from the use of heat in the process and ‘haline’ represents table salt‚ also known as halite. Where does it travel? How fast does the Thermohaline travel? The process of the thermohaline circulation is extremely slow moving‚ going at the speed of 10 centimetres per second at the most.

    perform an experiment in the labs to determine the heats of combustion of selected alcohols and then to use this information and the gathered data from chemical data sources to determine trends in the longer chain alcohols. The Variables that MUST be controlled throughout the experiment are: • The height from spirit burner nozzle to the base of the water filled beaker • Air drafts around the room must be kept to minimum so as to keep the heat on the base of the beaker a constant Temperature. •

    Thermochemistry Lab Purpose: This lab taught procedures for determining heat of capacity of a calorimeter and measuring enthalpy of change for three reactions. It also enforced methods of analyzing data obtained through experimentation and calculating enthalpy. These procedures are used in the branch of thermodynamics known as thermochemistry which is the study of energy changes that accompany chemical reactions. Concepts from this lab can be used to determine the potential energy of a chemical
