Combustion of Alkanols Aim: To determine which alkanols has higher heat combustion Hypothesis: The alkanols with the longer carbon chain will a higher heat combustion Background Information: Heat combustion can be calculated by using various formulas. By using ΔH= -mcΔT‚ we can gather the amount of heat released. Since the experiment is exothermic‚ ΔH will have a negative value. By dividing the total amount by 1000‚ the units changes into KJ. Divide the total KJ of heat by the amount of fuel

experiment is to determine which fuel‚ out of Pentane‚ Propane-1-ol and Propane-2-ol would be the most appropriate to take on a camping trip to a national park where wood cannot be used to burn. Factors that need to be considered are: • Heat of combustion (flash point) • Heat of vaporisation (boiling point) • How long the fuel will last • Does the fuel heat up the water relatively quickly • Does the fuel combust completely Hypothesis: If the tests are all successful‚ Pentane should produce a larger

Kentucky fried Chicken (KFC) has achieved another milestone in delivery. The explosive growth in Asian region most particularly in their current trends in China that KFC fried chicken‚ burger and fries is gaining its way to superstardom. In China‚ Yum! Brands is opening a KFC store every day. But this is not the KFC you know in America. A recent case study written by professor David Bell and Agribusiness Program director Mary Shelman reveals how the chicken giant adapted its famous fast-food formula

John Gomez Mr. Sterling MicroBio. Bioremediation of explosive contaminated soil "It has been estimated that there are thousands of explosives-contaminated sites within the United States‚ and even a greater number in Europe and the Soviet Union."(2) TNT (2‚4‚6- trinitrotoluene) is one of the most popular explosives used by military forces‚ and due to improper handling and disposal techniques TNT and its derivatives‚ have polluted environments to levels that threaten the health of humans‚ livestock

In this lab‚ we will measure the heat of combustion‚ or calorimetry‚ of a candle and compare the found quantity with known values for other hydrocarbons. The calorific value is the total thermal energy released when a substance goes through complete combustion with oxygen. In order to achieve the purpose of this lab‚ we must first determine the mass of the tea candle. Then‚ we will determine our room temperature‚ measure about 100 mL of chilled water‚ and then pour the water into the given empty

¬¬¬¬In this lab‚ we explored the theory of combustion and used it to create and biodiesel. Diesel is a common fuel used to power many large trucks and heavy equipment (such as tractors and backhoes). Diesel fuel is made from crude oil that was formed over millions of years by the decomposition of prehistoric plants and animals. Through the use of an oil well‚ crude oil is pumped out of the ground and transferred (often by large ocean tankers) to oil distillation units. Crude oil contains widely varying

Walt Whitman “Spontaneous Me” “Walt Whitman revolutionized American Poetry” (Norton 2190). A statement made by many‚ in which the American society can agree upon. His bold style of writing grasps the reader into a world where nature and sexuality meet. Whitman’s collection entitled Leaves of Grass was published in 1855 to a nation barely accepting of new ideas (Oakes). During the time of slavery and great religious value‚ Whitman’s pieces were considered immoral‚ traitorous and were often banned

I selected this article because the title urged me to find out more about the event. It instantly reminded me of Napoleon’s Spontaneous Demonstrations and made me think deeper about the themes of Animal Farm. This article is relevant to Animal Farm because Kim Jong Un is analogous to Napoleon‚ and his celebration is analogous to Napoleon’s Spontaneous Demonstrations. In the article‚ it tells of how North Koreans toiled day and night‚ renovating the Central Zoo and planting rows of apple trees
