Abstract

What is the effect of salt on the boiling temperature of water? Many people know the boiling temperature of water is 100 degrees. What if the boiling temperature can be increased by adding salt well it can. This experiment was a success. My hypothesis tested true my hypothesis states that the salt will increase the boiling temperature of water because different elements have different effects on each other. So I think the salt will increase the boiling temperature of water. The temperature of boiling water is 212.9 Fahrenheit. When 1 tablespoon of salt was added the temperature bubbled, showing instant reaction to the salt and the temperature rose to 215.6 but the bubbling water stopped bubbling and in exactly 7 seconds began to re -bubble again. I added another tablespoon of salt the boiling distilled water bubbled up again the same as the first test the only difference is the temperature of the boiling temperature of water was 218.3. The interesting result is the heat from the stove results in the temperature shown on the thermometer because the heat caused from the stove is vigorously high in temperature. What I really did is step 1 heat a stove with a 2 quart cooking pot with distilled water step 2 wait for the water to start boiling step 3 place 1 tablespoon of salt in the water and place the thermometer in the water and record any data step 4 repeat step 3 after adding another tablespoon of salt compare your two observations and temperatures. This experiment can be used in real world situation with cooking because something requiring water being boiled to cook it can be cooked two times faster because of the salt increasing the boiling temperature. This leads me to conclude that my hypothesis stated was correct the salt will increase the boiling temperature of distilled water and also another element can cause change to certain point in elements

    First we chose an unknown metal, in which our unknown was unknown metal 2, the metal was gray and irregular shaped. We setup the calorimeter and got a mass of it just being empty then we got a mass with 30mls of water in it. We found the mass of the water by subtracting the mass of the empty calorimeter which was 49.987g and the mass of the calorimeter with water which was 87.332g and got the mass of just the water 37.345g. The metal was placed in a test tube 5cm high and we got the mass of the empty test tube that was 42.703g and then with the metal in it and it was 72.607g. We heated the 300ml of water to a boil, then placed the metal that was in a tube and waited 10 minutes before we took it out. The temperature of the water before the metal was placed was 20 degrees Celsius, when we put the hot metal into the water and stirred it with the stirring rod it was 29 degrees Celsius, the change of the temperature after the metal was placed was 9 degrees. We ran this experiment twice to compare the results. In the second experiment we found that the mass of the calorimeter and water with 50mls was 100.033g and the empty calorimeter was 50.857g. We subtracted them two and we got the mass of water was 49.176g. The temperature of the water before the metal was placed in was 21 degrees Celsius and then when the metal was heated up for 10 minutes the temperature went up to 28 degrees Celsius. The change in temperature in the second trial was 7 degrees Celsius.…

    For this experiment my hypothesis was correct. The purpose of this experiment was achieved by observing and finding out the characteristics of each substance. The sugar turned brown and smelled good when heated, salt turned black and smelled like burnt rubber when heated, dirt turned to mud when water was added, and baking soda started to bubble when vinegar was added. According to table 1 the data shows that the unknown substance had similar characteristics to both sugar and dirt. And so to find out if my hypothesis was correct or not experiments were carried out based on tests that were characteristics of either sugar or dirt. One experiment was heating the unknown substance to check if it would start drying up and bubbling brown. The other was adding water to test if it would turn into mud. Some mistakes that could be improved in the experiment next time is- making sure not to pour a lot of salt into the beaker when heating it, since there was a lot of salt when heating it the smell was more nastier and shocking. Also when heating the dirt not to let it burn for a long time because when washing it, it was hard to get some of the dirt…

    The steps in the lab were to first start off with a burner, ice and water in a beaker, then record time and water temperature. Also, some phase changes in between. Our results were immediate, leading to safe and what I hoped would have happened. The difference between my data and the class’s data would have been a different amount of time the water took to boil. My result did agree with my hypothesis. There has been an error in the measuring since…

    I looked through many sources for this assignment; talked to a recruiter, discussed what my cousins went through in their own paths, studied the Marine Corp. website and etc. The source that I found most drawn to was the website; it answered all my questions whenever they popped into my head and answered questions I didn’t even have. The convenience of a website now is at your hands any time because of technology and I defiantly utilize this. The biggest question from my burning question was is this for me? I wondered that because every source I found said that Marines or any branch of the Army is not for everyone. The next information I looked for was how can I prepare myself so I succeed in whatever comes my way physically and mentally? Finally I asked what it is going to be like to make a career out of becoming a Marine.…
