16
Q

every substance has a ___, which tells you how much heat is necessary to raise the temperature of 1g of the substance by 1C

A

specific heat

17
Q

what kind of conditions affect deltaH

A

pressure, temperature, physical state

18
Q

the symbol deltaH represents?

A

change in enthalpy

19
Q

experimental error

A

(your value-theoretical)/theoretical
x100

must be absolute value

20
Q

what assumption is made about the mass of water?

A

no mass from whatever is dissolved in there

21
Q

why do we extrapolate?

A

the metals do not react in the same instant (gradual increase).
To calculate deltaH we theoretically estimate the Tf as if it is an instantaneous rxn by extrapolating.

22
Q

why ignore the heat capacity of the metals?

A

its very small

23
Q

gravimetric analysis

A

analysis using mass

24
Q

the one where you read the miniscus wrong

A

parallax error
