    Heat of Neutralization: Lab Report In part A of this lab I determined the heat capacity of a calorimeter made out of two Styrofoam cups nesting together with a cardboard top containing a hole in the middle. First I placed 50 mL of water in the calorimeter‚ waited five minutes for the water to reach equilibrium‚ and used the computer’s temperature instrument to record the final temperature of the system. Next I heated 50 mL of water in a 250 mL beaker until the water reached 43.1 C (approximately

    Introduction- Heat is energy that is warm. Heat energy comes from different energy forms or types like electrical. Heat is also natural‚ from the sun. Heat transforms by reflecting on something and giving it warmth. The temperatures on the coloured cans will vary because they absorb different amounts of heat. According to the particle theory when an object heats up the particles spread out and move more. Aim- The aim of this experiment is to test how colour affects the amount of heat being absorbed

We can sidestep this molecular picture by dealing with objects as a whole‚ and treating the energy transfer as the flow of heat‚ rather than kinetic energy transfer among particles. |Specific Heat for Various Materials | |Material |Specific Heat | | |(J/kg C°) | |Water |4186 | |Aluminum |900

    engine is a device which transforms one form of energy into another form. Most of the engines convert thermal engine to mechanical work and therefore they are called heat engine. Heat engine can be broadly classified into two types. i. Internal combustion engine ii. External combustion engine 1.1 CLASSIFICATION OF INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE:- This type of engine is again classified into two types. i. Rotary ii. Reciprocating The reciprocating engine is a highly complex engine and has hundreds

    Heat of Neutralization for an acid-base reaction Contents: - Abstract - Introduction - Results and Discussions - Conclusion - References Abstract: In the experimental procedure we will measure the heat of neutralization when an acid and base react to form 1 mole of water. This quantity of heat is measured experimentally by allowing the reaction to take place in a thermally insulated Styrofoam cup calorimeter. The heat liberated in the neutralization reaction will

    FIRE RESISTANT BALLOON: Materials -    1 matchbox -    1 candle -    1 yellow colored balloon -    1 blue colored balloon -    Half a cup of water   Procedure: 1.    For this experiment‚ the independent variable is whether the balloon is filled with water or not. The dependent variable is what happens to the balloon when it is placed above the lit candle. This is determined by observing the balloon. The constants (control variables) are how much the balloon is inflated and the amount

    From the experimental data and through its analysis‚ the enthalpy of combustion for the five alcohols were determined; methanol‚ ethanol‚ propanol‚ butanol‚ and pentanol. As the line of best fit in the graph suggests‚ the enthalpy of combustion increased as the sizes of the molecules increased. This was predicted in the hypothesis and proves it to be correct. As seen on the graph‚ the enthalpy of combustion increases from 140kJ/mol for methanol‚ which has the smallest molecular mass‚ to 530kJ/mol

    Heat pump From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search For theoretical background‚ see Heat pump and refrigeration cycle. Outdoor components of a residential air-source heat pump A heat pump is a machine or device that transfers thermal energy from one location‚ called the "source‚" which is at a lower temperature‚ to another location called the "sink" or "heat sink"‚ which is at a higher temperature. Thus‚ heat pumps moves thermal energy opposite to the direction that

    Heat exchanger A heat exchanger is a device that is used to transfer thermal energy (enthalpy) between two or more fluids‚ between a solid surface and a fluid‚ or between solid particulates and a fluid‚ at different temperatures and in thermal contact. In heat exchangers‚ there are usually no external heat and work interactions. Typical applications involve heating or cooling of a fluid stream of concern and evaporation or condensation of single- or multicomponent fluid streams. In a few heat exchangers
