Equation 3: NH3(aq) + HCl(aq) NH4Cl(aq) Resulting in Equation 1 plus Equation 2(reversed) will equal Equation 3. In this case‚ Hess’s Law gave the ΔH for Equation 3. Calorimetry is the science of measuring heat‚ and is based on observing the temperature change when a body absorbs or discharges energy as heat. A calorimeter is the device used experimentally to determine the heat associated with a chemical reaction. Methods and Materials A calorimeter made of two nested Styrofoam cups and a cover

Sameera Raziuddin Latent Heat of Fusion April 11‚ 2011 Abstract: A calorimeter‚ water at room temperature‚ ice‚ and a Pasco GLS Explorer were used in combination with a known value of the latent heat of fusion to create and carry out an experiment to determine the mass of an unknown amount of ice. Using the formula for latent heat of fusion‚ the mass of the ice was calculated to be 45.76g. The error of the carried out experiment was calculated to be 20.06%. Introduction:

of potassium nitrate in water. The solubility of potassium nitrate in mol/L was measured over a range of various temperatures by finding out at what temperature crystallization began for solutions of different molarities. Then‚ the equilibrium constant was calculated and a graphical relationship between the natural logarithm of the equilibrium constant and the inverse of the temperature gave a linear plot that allowed the determination of Gibbs free energy and enthalpy changes associated with the

from a liquid‚ its temperature drops. The entropy‚ or random ordering of its particles‚ also decreases until a specific ordering of the particles results in a phase change to a solid. If energy is being released or absorbed by a substance remaining at the same temperature‚ this is evidence that a dramatic change in entropy‚ such as a phase change‚ is occurring. Because all of the particles of a pure substance are identical‚ they all freeze at the same temperature‚ and the temperature will not change

meter (N/m2)‚ or pascals (Pa). 3. Slowly drag the temperature (T) slider back and forth. (Note: In this Gizmo‚ the Kelvin scale is used to measure temperature. On the Kelvin scale‚ 0 degrees is absolute zero‚ the coldest possible temperature. Absolute zero is equal to -273.15 °C or -459.67 °F) A. How does the change in temperature affect the speed of the molecules? __If the temperature is colder the molecules move slower and if the temperature is hotter the molecules move faster.

AIT Physics 1 Honors Laboratory: Specific Heat and Conservation of Energy When energy in the form of heat Q is added to a material‚ the temperature of the material rises. Note that temperature‚ in units of degrees Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K)‚ is a measure of how hot or cold a substance is‚ while heat‚ in units of joules (J) or calories (cal)‚ is a measure of its thermal energy. 1cal = 4.19J. A measure of the efficiency with which a substance can store this heat energy is known as specific heat capacity

Objective 1. To demonstrate the relationship between the pressure and temperature of saturated steam in equilibrium with water. 2. To determine the vapour pressure curve. Introduction Properties of a fluid can change when heat and work are applied to it. There’s an interchange between the fluid and its surroundings when heat and work are applied according to the study of thermodynamics. Substances such as gases and vapors are often referred as P-V-T substances. Theory: An ideal gas

The internal temperature of these “lizards” was measured over a period of 20 minutes to see if their body temperatures matched that of their environment and to make inferences about the behavioral adaptations the organism might acquire to maintain its body temperature. One microhabitat was on a tree and under the branches; the other was at the

Temperature Scales Ex: At what temperature will the reading on the Fahrenheit scale be numerically equal to that on the Celsius scale? The relationship between the two scales is given by TF = (9/5)TC + 32.0. We want the temperature when TF = TC‚ so we make that substitution. Rearranging gives Heat and Temperature Change: Specific Heat Capacity Q = mc T 4186 J = 1 kcal Ex: If 15 kcal of heat are added to 5.0 kg of silver‚ by how much will its temperature rise?
