1. Choose an equipment, device or tool that you have used regularly in your daily life. Figure 1: Thermos flask (eBay Inc, 2015).
The equipment I have used regularly in my daily life and I had chosen for the material science assignment is Thermos Flask. 2. Explain the main purpose of using the item that you have chosen.
Thermos Flask, which also known as vacuum flask or thermos bottle, is the storage units which remain the ideal temperature of a beverage in which it should be consumed. It is essentially a vacuum insulated liquid storage container that retains the temperature for a long period of the content either hot or cold no matter what is the temperature of the surroundings. A thermos flask normally can keep liquid in cold up to a day (24 hours) and warm for about 8 hours. They are normally used to carry beverages like soup, tea or coffee, cool drinks and others.
Due to the insulator properties of thermos flask, it benefits peoples who want to have a cool drink or hot drink anytime and anywhere without considering where to get it. For an example, a thermos flask can be used to carry a hot coffee which a student wanted to consume it on class or a cold beverage is carried and can be consumed after ones done his jogging (Shopping Tips Zone, 2014).

3. Identify the materials used for the construction of such item. Figure 2: The structure of Thermos Flask (Boyson, 2004).

Thermos flasks are often made up of metal, foam or plastic, borosilicate glass with

After seeing this data the two most effective look chemical at resisting energy was CaCl2 and LiCl. So we looked at the price of both of this chemical CaCl2 cost 6.55$ per 500g and LiCl cost 32.75$ per 500g because CaCl2 was substantially cheaper we decide to chose it to use in own hand warmer. We calculated that it would take 22g of CaCl2 to create a 20oC increase in temperature of 100ml of water. Some sources of error in this lab, would be heat escape from not be able to replace the lid of the calorement went adding chemical into it, inaccuracies in the balance, and not waiting of the proper time to recode the

Alka-Seltzer is a medical drug that works as a pain reliever and an antacid. The pain reliever used is aspirin and the antacid used is baking soda. When sodium bicarbonate dissolves in water it splits apart into sodium and bicarbonate ions. The bicarbonates reacts with hydrogen ions from citric acid to form carbon dioxide gas and water. This is how the bubbles are made.

Introduction The intent of this experiment is to understand how hot and cold water interact with each other by combining clear hot water and black ice cold water. I hope to learn more about how hot and cold water interact with each other. As of now, I know that cold water is denser than hot water. Knowing this I formed my hypothesis.

This coil has an electrical resistor which resists the flow of electricity, which in effect converts electrical energy into heat as energy goes through the coil. Due to this, the heat energy produced by the resistor heats up the water within the kettle to boiling point. The heating element is controlled by a bimetallic thermostat, which contains a variable resistor inside it. Integrated at the bottom of the kettle, it consists of a disc of two different metals bonded tightly together, curved in a particular direction. As temperature inside the kettle rises, one metal expands faster than the other, set up in a manner

Thanks to the boiling chips, the heat is evenly distributed within the flask, which permits a more controlled boil and eliminates the possibility of the liquid in the flask bumping into the condenser[5]. The tedious distillation process is rather simple: the beverage evaporates in the distillation flask and, having no where else to go, enters the condensing tube, where it cools down and is converted back into liquid form. From there on, this liquid flows into the final container, a graduated cylinder [preferably in an ice bath]. The extracted distillate is otherwise known as ethanol, a clear, colorless, flammable liquid, produced through the process of glucose fermentation and frequently used as an intoxicating agent in liquors[6].

Heat stress is a condition in which the increase in core body temperature overwhelms the body’s homeostatic thermoregulation abilities, thus producing and absorbing more heat than the body could dissipate [1]. This results in a wide spectrum of heat-related illnesses, ranging from minor conditions such as heat cramps and heat exhaustion to the more severe condition known as heat stroke. Heat stroke is defined as a core body temperature of beyond 40.60C, commonly associated with the dysfunction of the Central Nervous System (CNS) and the failure of multiple organ systems, which may ultimately result in disability or death. [2] Heat stress can be categorized into two different entities: classical and exertional. Classical or environmental heat
