18
Q

How is q=mc^t rearranged for ^t?

A

^t=q/mc

19
Q

How does the simple calorimeter experiment measure enthalpy change?

A

using spirit burner of ethanol heat known mass of water
record initial temperature of water and weight of spirit burner
note temperature rise in water
re-weigh spirit burner
calculate temperature change
use equation q=mc^t

20
Q

How is delta H calculated?

A

delta H = q/mol

21
Q

What methods are applied to reduce and allow for heat loss?

A

-use copper calorimeter or polystyrene cup as they are good insulators
-use draught excluder
-use thermometer which reads to 0.1 C
-create cooling curve

22
Q

How is a cooling curve created?

A

-measure temperature every 30s for 4 minutes
-don’t record temperature at 4 minutes, add solutions together
-record temperature every 30s for further 6 minutes
-draw graph time against temperature
-extrapolate line of best fit to 4 minutes
-find temperature change
