Assessment: Determining the Enthalpy Change of a Displacement Reaction AIM: To determine the enthalpy change for the reaction between copper(II) sulfate and zinc. BACKGROUND THEORY: Bond breaking is endothermic while bond forming is exothermic. The reaction between copper(ll) sulfate and zinc is exothermic as the energy required to form the bonds of the products is greater than the energy required to break the bonds of the reactants. In an exothermic reaction‚ heat is given off to the surroundings;

Analysis of a Copper Sulfate Sample Empirical Formula of Hydrous Copper Sulfate Joel Ramirez 9/25/2012 10/2/2012 The purpose of this experiment is to find the empirical formula of a hydrous copper sulfate sample and the amount of water in the sample. This whole process will be determined in three different experiments. Procedure: Experiment 1 – Percentage of water in sample. The percentage of water in hydrous copper sulfate was determined. Clean‚ dry and weight the crucible

of copper wire was 1.250g but the recovered copper was only 0.120 subtracting the mass of the recovered copper with beaker from the tare beaker mass. So the percentage yield resulted only to 9.6% it is very little‚ and it may be due to many possible sources from doing the steps. Adding too much or too little of a compound to the copper solution‚or the loss of copper during transport or by being left on the stirring rod. Another situation which was a source of error is when the copper solution and

Investigate temperature change during a neutralization reaction Introduction: When an alkali neutralizes an acid‚ a salt and water are formed. Aqueous hydrogen ions (H+(aq)) from the acid react with the hydroxide ions (OH-(aq)) from the alkali‚ forming water. For hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide: H+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + Na+(aq) + OH-(aq) → Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) Hydrochloric acid Hydrochloric acid Sodium Chloride Sodium Chloride Sodium Hydroxide Sodium Hydroxide Neutralization

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 in must

In Reaction 1‚ the mass of the pre-cut copper wire was measured with watch glass on the analytical balance‚ the mass was recorded using as many significant figures as possible on Table 2. The copper wire was bended into a circle and laid flat on the bottom of the 250 mL beaker. Inside the fume hood‚ 4mL 16M of HNO3 was added into the 250mL beaker that contained the copper wire. The copper wire was completely dissolved by swirling the beaker. The observation was recorded in Table 3. For Reaction 2
