Chemistry 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

The actual rate of a chemical reaction however is dependent on two things; the temperature the actual experiment is performed at‚ and the concentration pertaining to the reactants. The rate of a reaction more often

Devon Backstrom February 5st 2013 PSU Chemistry 222 – Lab 4 Decomposition of Hydrogen Peroxide Abstract: This lab was designed to observe the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide into it oxygen and water. The equation for this reaction is H202 H2O + +1/2O2 thus by measuring volume and pressure of O2 generated the amount of O2 generated can be calculated which in turn can be utilized to determine the concentration of water already in the H2O2 solution. The results determined that 3.02% of the

calculate the enthalpy change of neutralization of the given pairs of acid and base. Theory: When 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 the alkali‚ forming water. Ionic equation: H+ (aq)+OH- (aq) → H2O (l) The identity of the salt will depend on the nature of the acid and alkali used. The combination of H+ and OH- ions in this way releases energy. In this practical‚ the enthalpy changes accompanying

Plan: Aim: The enthalpy change of combustion of a fuel is a measure of the energy transferred when one mole of fuel burns completely. A value for the enthalpy change can be obtained by using the burning fuel to heat water and using fact that 4.2j of energy are required to raise the temperature of 1g of water by 1oC. In this investigation my aim is to find the enthalpy change of combustion of a number of alcohols so that I can investigate how and why the enthalpy change is affected by the molecular

on the molar enthalpy change of a neutralization reaction Principle H2SO4(aq)+2NaOH(aq)=Na2SO4(aq)+2H2O(l) The reaction is a exothermic reaction‚ when the heat released by it is absorbed by water‚ the temperature of the water increases. The heat produced by the reaction can be calculated if it is assumed that all the heat is absorbed by the water. Heat change of reaction=-heat change of water =-mH2O×cH2O×△TH2O As the water has gained the heat produced by the reaction‚ the heat change of reaction

Enthalpy of Neutralization Introduction Energy changes always accompany chemical reactions. If energy‚ in the form of heat‚ is liberated the reaction is exothermic and if energy is absorbed the reaction is endothermic. Thermochemistry is concerned with the measurement of the amount of heat evolved or absorbed. The heat (or enthalpy) of neutralization (∆H) is the heat evolved when an acid and a base react to form a salt plus water. Eq. 1 HNO2(aq) + NAOH(aq) → NaNO2(aq) + H2O(l) + Q Q in the
