Thermodynamics – Enthalpy of Reaction and Hess’s Law I. Purpose The purpose of this lab is to verify Hess’s Law through the three reactions of NaOH and HCl‚ NH4Cl and NaOH‚ and NH3 and HCl. The sum of the enthalpies of the first two reactions should equal the enthalpy of the third reaction. II. Background Hess’s Law is used to determine the enthalpy of a reaction from adding two or more preceding reactions. To determine the enthalpies of certain chemical reactions‚ the change in must

mass of copper wire was 1.250g but the recovered copper was only 0.120 subtracting the mass of the recovered copper with beaker from the tare beaker mass. So the percentage yield resulted only to 9.6% it is very little‚ and it may be due to many possible sources from doing the steps. Adding too much or too little of a compound to the copper solution‚or the loss of copper during transport or by being left on the stirring rod. Another situation which was a source of error is when the copper solution

Determination of the Waters of Crystallisation/ Water of Hydration‚ In Hydrated copper (II) Sulphate Introduction In nature there are some salts that will have water in their crystalline structure. These salts are commonly known as hydrated salts. Hydrated Copper (II) sulphate is one of these‚ as suggested by the use of the word hydrated in its name. Its molecular structure is shown below. The water that is chemically combined into their structure is called the water of crystallisation.

In Reaction 1‚ the mass of the pre-cut copper wire was measured with watch glass on the analytical balance‚ the mass was recorded using as many significant figures as possible on Table 2. The copper wire was bended into a circle and laid flat on the bottom of the 250 mL beaker. Inside the fume hood‚ 4mL 16M of HNO3 was added into the 250mL beaker that contained the copper wire. The copper wire was completely dissolved by swirling the beaker. The observation was recorded in Table 3. For Reaction 2

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

DETERMINATION OF THE THICKNESS OF ZINC ON A PIECE OF GALVANIZED METAL Department of Biology‚ College of Science‚ University of the Philippines Baguio ABSTRACT The experiment was performed to be able to determine the thickness of zinc on a piece of galvanized metal. It also aimed for the students to be introduced to the reactivates of metals with acids as well as for them to develop some feeling for the size of an atom. In determining the thickness of the zinc coating on the metal‚ students

HEAT TREATMENT OF COPPER AND COPPER ALLOYS COPPER AND COPPER ALLOYS: Copper and its alloys are widely used in many products that are used in our everyday life. They have excellent properties such as electrical and thermal conductivity good strength. They have high corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance. Copper is a non-magnetic material. Pure Copper is soft and used widely in wires and cables and is extensively used for passage of electricity. Copper is used in the building construction.
