Q

What happens in calorimetry in an exothermic reaction?

A
  • Reaction releases heat energy
  • Heat energy is absorbed by nearby water
  • Temperature of water increases

Q

Calorimetry combustion method

A

1) Weigh out 50g of water and place in a can above burner
2) Measure initial mass of burner and initial water temp
3) Ignite burner, stir water for 30s, extinguish burner
4) Measure final mass of burner and final temp of water

Q

What are the two significant sources of error in a calorimetry combustion experiment?

A
  • Heat loss - energy dissipates into air instead of water
  • Incomplete combustion - releases less heat energy than expected

Q

What is a source of error in a solution calorimetry?

A

Water is no longer pure, meaning inaccurate specific heat capacity

17
Q

How do you do a calorimetry with an endothermic reaction?

A

In a solution

18
Q

What are the results of an endothermic calorimetry experiment?

A

Results in a negative temperature change for the water

18
Q

How does a calorimetry endothermic reaction work?

A

The reaction absorbs heat energy from the water, so the water cools down
