Experiment 5: Heat Of Neutralization

Question 1

Define heat capacity

Answer 1

The measurable physical quantity that characterized the amount of heat required to change the body’s temperature by a given amount

Question 2

Equation for change in enthalpy

Answer 2

🔼H = -🔼T(heat capacity of calorimeter + heat capacity of contents) = q

🔼H = -C🔼T

Question 3

Heat lost by warmer water

Answer 3

🔼H= (T2-Tf) x m x S.H

Question 4

Heat gained by cooler water

Answer 4

🔼H = (Tf-T1) x m x S.H.
