D. F. Nachman Thermochemistry: An Ice Calorimeter Determination of Reaction Enthalpy 9/11/2014 Introduction: A chemical reaction often indicated by a transfer of energy measured in heat. By measuring this heat transfer in a constant pressurized environment‚ the enthalpy of the reaction can be used to infer certain information about a specific reactions reactants and products. The transfer of heat from outside sources in would be described as an endothermic reaction. Contrary‚ when

1. Suppose that an open box is to be made from a square sheet of cardboard by cutting out 6-inch squares from each corner as shown and then folding along the dotted lines. If the box is to have a volume of 486 cubic inches‚ find the original dimensions of the sheet of cardboard. 2. A toy rocket is shot vertically upward from the ground. Its distance in feet from the ground in 5 seconds is given by s(t) = -16t2 + 169t. At what time or times will the ball be 162 ft. from the ground? Round your

P9/M4- Determination of Abstract: The aim of this experiment was to find out which alcohol burner was the most efficient when heating up water. The different alcohol burners were placed under cans full of 100cm3 of water one after the other. There was a thermometer placed in the can‚ which measured the temperature change during the experiment. It was noticeable that the most efficient alcohol burner was Octan-1-ol as its average was 16.4KJ whilst most other burners were less than 10KJ.

When talking about the most efficient air bag we are talking about using the least amount of chemicals to make the most carbon dioxide to inflate the bag. We hypothesized that a small amount of sodium bicarbonate with a small amount of acetic acid will create enough carbon dioxide to inflate the bag so Humpty

Factors Affecting Enzyme Activity Abstract: In the following lab factors affecting enzyme activity‚ temperature‚ pH‚ enzyme concentration‚ substrate concentration and surface area will be tested on a beef liver enzyme to see if there will be any effect of performance. By doing 2 or more trials the results will show whether there is an effect to the enzyme from the following factors or not. Some of the factors may denature the enzyme and some will do nothing. Using a table qualitative and the

Chapter 18 Vocabulary • Energy Efficiency- Percentage of the total energy input that does useful work and is not converted into low-quality‚ usually useless heat in an energy conversion system or process. See energy quality‚ net energy. • Incandescent Light Bulb- One largely used devices that uses large amounts of energy‚ wastes 95% of its energy input of electricity • Internal Combustion Engine- Another device that uses a lot of energy‚ wastes 75%-80% of the energy in its fuel • Coal-Burning

Engineering Materials Week 9 12.11 Iron titanate forms in the ilmenite crystal structure that consists of an HCP arrangement of ions. (a). Which type of interstitial site will the ions occupy? Why? Since this ratio is between 0.414 and 0.732‚ the ions will occupy octahedral sites (b). Which type of interstitial site will the ions occupy? Why? Since this ratio is between 0.414 and 0.732‚ the ions will also occupy octahedral sites. (c). What fraction of the total tetrahedral sites will be occupied

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

The Question: Does temperature affect the elasticity of a rubber band? Our Hypothesis: We thought that in hot water that it will be the most elastic. Simply because hot water make things stretchy and moveable like balsa wood. Material: 1. Three Cups 2. Nine rubber bands (should be the same) 3. Cold Water 4. Hot Water 5. Room Temperature Water 6. Two pencils (you will see why later) 7. Four Ice Cubes 8. Water that is sitting in an indoor location 9. Stop Watch 10. Ruler Experimental 1. Take one cup

Thermal Expansion Thermal expansion is the tendency of matter to change in volume in response to a change in temperature‚ through heat transfer. The coefficient of thermal expansion describes how the size of an object changes with a change in temperature. Specifically‚ it measures the fractional change in size per degree change in temperature at a constant pressure. Several types of coefficients have been developed: volumetric‚ area‚ and linear. This is used depending on the particular application
