    Heat of Combustion Questions 1. When bonds are broken‚ energy is required. When bond are formed‚ energy is released. All combustion reactions are exothermic. Suggest a reason for this in terms of the bonds broken and bonds formed. The energy required to break the bonds is greater than the energy required to form. 2. Explain why the heat of combustion of alkanols increases as the length of the carbon chain increases. The heat of combustion of alkanol increases as the length of carbon chain

    ANALYSIS On the first part of the experiment which is the determination of specific heat of metals. The obtained value of experimental specific heat of metal of aluminum and copper are 0.2152 calg-℃ and 0.0958 cal g-℃ ‚ respectively. It is a must to work faster in performing this experiment because working in an air-conditioned room greatly affects the result of the temperature. For the temperature values‚ the final temperature of mixture should not increase more than 1 ℃ compare

    Hoang Ngo Lab 6 report Anita Dey Thursday 8am Abstract: We recently performed a liquid nitrogen experiment in finding the Latent heat of the substance. We isolated two parts of the experiment in order to find out how much evaporation of the liquid nitrogen was from the surroundings B and how much evaporation from the electricity G. 1. When a substance is undergoing a phase transition‚ more heat (energy) is being added to the Substance but its temperature (a way of measuring its energy) is not

    Title: Specific Heat of Solids II. Object: To determine the specific heat capacity of solids by methods of mixtures. III. Theory: When to or more substances at different temperatures are mixed‚ heat will flow from the substance of higher temperature to the substance of lower temperature. The heat flow will continue until equilibrium in temperature is reached. From the Law of Conservation of Energy‚ whatever amount of heat is lost by the hot substance must be equal to the heat gained by the cold

    Abstract Different substances react in various ways when exposed to heat. The amount of energy necessary to heat a certain amount of water by one degree is different than that of another liquid or substance. The technical term used to determine this characteristic is called heat capacity or specific heat capacity. The purpose of this experiment is to find the heat capacity of water‚ orange juice‚ and olive oil. A couple of very specific equipment is needed in order to complete this experiment

    Conclusions The purpose of this experiment was to find the relationship between a substance’s specific heat and its atomic weight. In the lab‚ the substances with the higher atomic weights had less specific heat. From this‚ we can conclude that specific heat and atomic weight have an inverse relationship‚ meaning as one decreases the other increases. The reason for this is because if atoms are small‚ or light‚ they have the ability to pack tightly together‚ leaving almost no space between them

    latent heat of fusion for water Specific latent heat is the amount of heat energy that is needed to change the state of one kilogram of a specific substance‚ whether it’s boiling or melting‚ without increasing or decreasing the temperature of the substance. Specific latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy that is needed to change a specific substance from solid to liquid. The specific latent heat of fusion for water is 334 KJ/ KG. Each substance has its own specific latent heat of fusion

    Date: 25th November‚ 2011 Aim: To show that when Hot and Cold water are mixed‚ heat lost by hot water is equal to heat gained by cold water. Theory: This Lab is done to demonstrate “the Law of Conservation of Energy”‚ which implies: - “the heat lost by one (1) substance must be equal to the heat gained by another substance within the system”. Apparatus: Two (2) similar Calorimeters: a Thermometer: a Measuring Cylinder: a Bunsen burner: a Tripod: an Asbestos Gauze Cork Mat. Procedure:
