Combustion of Alcohols Purpose: The purpose of this investigation is to use calorimetry to determine the molar enthalpy change in the combustion of each of a series of alcohols. Question: How do the enthalpies of combustion change as the alcohol molecules become larger? Prediction: I predict the bigger the molecule the more the energy will be released. Materials: On lab sheet Procedure: On lab sheet Observation: On other page Analysis: b) i) Ethanol – q=(100g)(4.18J/g/C)(25.5C) q=10659J
