Enhtalpy change - Hess’ law Experiment #7 Date performed: March 4‚ 2014 Presented by: Sam Tabah(I.D.#1402433) & Giuliano Amato(I.D.#1328425) General Chemistry 202 Nya-05 (00006) Vanier college Part A. Objective: The objective of this lab was to determine the standard heat formation (∆H°F) of MgO‚ using a calorimeter and determining the enthalpy of two reactions. Applying Hess’ law we were able to determine the standard heat formation of MgO. Introduction

DETERMINATION OF ENTHALPY CHANGE OF NEUTRALIZATION IA Criteria Assessed: DCP CE MS 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 alkali‚ forming water. The identity of salt will depend on the nature of the acid and alkali used. H+(aq) + OH- (aq) → H2O(L) The combination of H+ and OH- ions in this way releases energy. In this practical‚ the enthalpy changes accompanying

Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy D. F. Nachman 6/23/2010 Abstract: An ice calorimeter was used to study the reaction of magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid solution: Mg(s) + H2SO4(aq) →MgSO4(aq) + H2(g). We found the experimental molar enthalpy of reaction to be ΔH = –355 ± 17 kJ/mol at 0°C‚ 24% lower than the textbook value of ΔH° = –466.9 kJ/mol‚ reported at 25°C. Introduction Whether a chemical reaction occurs spontaneously or is driven by an outside force

Measuring the Enthalpy change of combustion Abstract This simple experiment is carried out to show the difference in the enthalpy change of combustion between two fuels‚ hexane and methanol. These fuels are individually weighed before and after used as heat source to heat water in a calorimeter. The result is used to find out amount of heat transferred by the fuel‚ amount of fuel used and the enthalpy change of combustion. Introduction Enthalpy change of combustion is the enthalpy change when a substance

primary objective of this lab is to be able to determine the specific heat of a reaction by using a calorimeter. A calorimeter is a device used to determine the specific heat of chemical reaction or a physical change. The specific heat a reactions is used to refer to the amount of heat that is lost or gained when one gram of a particular substance increases or decreases by one degree Celsius. When a chemical reaction occurs in an open container most of the energy gained or lost is in the form of

15.2 Born-Haber Cycle Our calculations of enthalpies so far have involved covalent substances. Now we need to look at the enthalpy changes involved in the formation of giant ionic lattices. Lattice enthalpy is defined as either the: ’the enthalpy change that occurs when one mole of a solid ionic crystal is broken into its ions in the gaseous state‚ at standard temperature and pressure. Because all the bonds in the ionic lattice are broken‚ it is an endothermic process‚ ∆H is positive. ’ The

Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy Curtis M. Franklin Thursday‚ February 14‚ 2013 ABSTRACT An ice calorimetric measurement was used to determine that a reaction involving solid magnesium metal and 1.00M sulfuric acid produces an experimental a value of ∆H = -226 ± 28 kJ/mol at 0°C. This is about 48.4% lower than the expected value reported at 25°C. Introduction Many chemical reactions exhibit themselves by exchanging heat energy‚ either be absorbing

Single Displacement Reaction The objective of this experiment was to observe evidence of a reaction and to determine the chemical equation‚ if there is a reaction. In order for a reaction to occur‚ a metal strip must have evidence of black or grey deposits on the surface of the metal once dipped into the solution. The reactivity of an element is related to its tendency to lose or gain electrons. Three metal strips that were used are copper‚ lead and zinc as well as the solutions of silver nitrate

Internal 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
