OEI:

Method:
1. A beaker 100ml tripod
2. Thermometer inside water via retort stand
3. Record initial temperature of water
4. Fill spirit burner with 50ml of 1st fuel and weigh
5. Place spirit burner under the tripod
6. Light spirit burner and let burn under beaker of water for 30 seconds
7. Once 30 seconds is reached, record final temperature of water and put the lid on the spirit burner to stop flame and remove from apparatus
8. Weigh the spirit burner and record change in weight.
9. Repeat steps 1-8 with fuel 2,3,4 and the unknown respectively

Introduction

For this experiment, our team decided to identify the unknown alkanol through the process of heat of combustion. A beaker containing a known volume of water will be placed upon a tripod, with a spirit burner filled with 100ml of methane placed underneath. The heat released from the burning of the methane is transferred to the beaker of water. From the temperature change of the water and the mass change of the alkanol, the enthalpy change per mole of the alkanol can be calculated. …show more content…

For the unknown alkanol, only the enthalpy change can be recorded, as the number of moles cannot be calculated of an unknown substance. The data will then be graphed, with the ∆h/m recorded on the y-axis of a graph, with C1-C8 recorded on the x-axis. The known alkanols will be graphed according to their chain length and ∆h/m. A line of best fit will then made. The unknown alkanol will then be plotted on the line of best fit depending on its

Thermometer Procedure: Fill the three beaker with water. - Beaker #1 will be filled with ice cold water (4c). - Beaker #2 will be filled with water at a room temperature (20c). - Beaker #3 will be filled with hot water (75c). Place a magnetic stirrer in each beaker.

The control in the experiment is water. Units used while timing the productivity of gas from an Alka-Seltzer tablet in different temperatures is, seconds. In order to find out if temperature controls the rate of chemical reaction, whether hot water is a more effective way to make the gas produce at a faster speed, it would be necessary to compare the results of different temperatures at the end of each trial. In order to do this the scientists will measure the volume of gas that is produced within a 10 second interval time after the tablet begins to react.

Modifications of this procedure include the use of hot plates instead of Bunsen burners, and heating t-butyl alcohol to 60-65 ℃ instead of 50 ℃. Other modifications include the use of weighing boats to measure an amount of unknown instead of weighing paper, and completing one run of unknown 2 instead of two runs of unknown 2. Summary of

I will put the thermometer into the beaker and stir the water, leave the thermometer till the temperature stays constant.-this will give the normal water temperature. 13. I will take the water out the beaker and wipe it dry. 14. I will activate the heat packs wait for a minute put thermometer onto the copper to see the temperature 15.

The objective of the experiment was to try to figure out what the mystery powder was. I used a bunsen burner, four different types of liquids. We were given eight powders and one of these powders were our mystery powder. And each powder reacted different to the fire and the liquid. We had to go back into our notes and see what matched to what.

1. What temperature will have the fastest reaction if a catalase enzyme and hydrogen peroxide are mixed together? 2. If catalase enzymes and hydrogen peroxide are mixed together, then the fastest reaction will occur when the test tube is placed in a 30 degrees C water bath because that is the temperature when and hydrogen peroxide react the fastest. 3.

This practical report presents the molar enthalpy of combustion of several alcohols. Alcohols The most abundant form of organic compounds is alcohol, alcohol is formed by an OH- combining with a carbon atom. These compounds can be put into three groups, primary, secondary and tertiary the distinction for identifying which classification these compounds are, is dependent on the way the hydroxyl is covalently bonded with carbon. In primary one carbon is only bonded with another carbon, secondary has two bonds with carbon atoms.

First of all we started with 3 water bottles and filled each with 3 substances. The substances were Water, Soap Water, and Milk. We filled each bottle with each substance with about 400mL. After this we measured the height of the bottles with the substances in it and we recorded it down. Than we put the bottles in a freezer for about 72 hours.

Place the the beaker onto a hot plate that is on a low heat setting (about setting 3). Every 5 minutes for 20 minutes, measure the circumference of the balloon and record it in Data Table A. You can measure the circumference of the balloon by looping a piece of string around it then using a ruler to measure the string’s length. Record the data in the data

This includes empty soda can without a top, thermometer, ring stand with iron ring attached, glass rod, 100 ml graduated cylinder, matches, and last but not least two different types of fuel source (propanol, ethanol). Upon completion of the experiment, we got a few notable results. We noticed that the amount of heat absorbed by water is mostly constant between the two but the noticeable difference obtained was with the heat per gram of fuel and heat of

II. METHODOLOGY In order to perform this experiment, the students will need a distillation set-up with a connector receiver, an iron ring and stand, a Bunsen burner, a wire gauze, a 250mL round bottom flask, a graduated cylinder, a thermometer, one or two boiling chips, an alcoholic beverage, masking tape, an ice bath, a stirring rod, and, optionally, food coloring. It is imporatnt to avoid playing with the apparatus and equipment so as to avoid breakage and injuries, especially since fire is being dealt with in this experiment.

➢ Select the flask, and then choose 50 mL of crude oil from the Chemicals menu. Then, by selecting the flask and choose “Chemical Properties” option from dropdown. NOTE: Record the grams of gasoline, kerosene, and lubricating oils that are present in the 50 mL of crude oil. ➢ Select the flask, and choose Heating Mantel option afterward select Max Heat and make sure you record the temperature when you see crude oil begins to boil. ➢ When the crude oil begins to boil, Make sure you turn the temperature down to 60% by decreasing the heating metal two times.

However, it is difficult to conduct the experiment in the laboratory to measure the enthalpy change of hydrogenation of 2-butyne directly. Instead, the enthalpy change of combustion of the alkyne, alkene and hydrogen are determined separately, followed by the application of Hess’s
