    (Internal Combustion Engine) Name: Chia Wei Qian ID: 1101C12664 Period 4 Date: 14 May 2012 Lecturer: Mr. Jaroslaw Cebrowski Introduction Car engine is amazing machine that convert the heat energy to mechanical energy to let the car move. As we know the modern car engine is works in the internal combustion so it is call internal combustion engines. But for the older technology‚ they used External Combustion Engines. It is far lower efficiency than internal combustion engines.

    COMBUSTION Name : Natashane McCook Assignment #1 Course : Power Plant Engineering Lecture : Mr: E Thorpe Title : Combustion The term complete combustion generally is used in connection with the burning of hydrocarbons. Combustion is the process of burning that occurs when fuel‚ oxygen‚ and heat are simultaneously present. The result of complete combustion is the release of energy‚ carbon dioxide‚ and water vapor. If the hydrocarbon contains sulfur‚ sulfur dioxide also will be present. On the

    (limewater) 50 mL beaker (for indicator) Procedure My lab partner and I performed a series of experiments to investigate the chemistry of the burning of a candle. The teacher provided the following chemical equation to describe the burning‚ or combustion‚ in the candle: Hydrocarbon fuel + O2  CO2 + H2O The candle we used was a small‚ white emergency candle about 3.5 cm tall. The candle had already been used by someone else because I could see from the black wick that it had been lit before.

    Capacity for a Calorimeter and of the Enthalpy of an Acid-Base Reaction Abstract The purpose of this lab was to first‚ determine the specific heat capacity of a homemade calorimeter‚ and second‚ to calculate the enthalpy of reaction for an acid-base reaction between 6M KOH and 6M HNO3. To determine the specific heat capacity of the calorimeter‚ two differing temperatures of water were measured and volume was measured and mixed within the calorimeter. The enthalpy of reaction for an acid-base reaction

    The Enthalpy Change of the Decomposition of Calcium Carbonate _INTRODUCTION_ RESEARCH QUESTION: What is the enthalpy change of the decomposition of calcium carbonate? BACKGROUND: Enthalpy in chemistry can be thought of as the energy contained within the bonds‚ or the internal energy‚ but it is not heat and you can only measure changes in it. When bond bonds break in the reactants energy is given off‚ when bonds form‚ energy is absorbed. If the energy absorbed is less than the energy released

    So in wood combustion we observe solid wood disappear and be converted to gas products‚ leaving only some ashes. These are formed by minor components of wood that cannot burn and remain solid. 1. Explain what happens to the mass of a tree when it catches fire and burns until only ashes remain. You must include a chemical equation; discuss the chemical reactions taking place‚ and the law of conservation of mass in your answer. The wood from the tree has undergone a chemical change. When you burn
