Welcome to a week of online PChem! As you know, 11 MC students, faculty and staff are attending the 258th bi-annual ACS meeting in San Diego, CA...YES there have been 257 previous ACS meetings (2 per year). At this years meeting there are ~11,500 abstracts/presentations, ~9,000 in-person attendees, and another ~3,000 virtual registrants.

So, in my absences, i ask you to complete the following work. On Monday March 28th, you will bring to class all of the completed work listed below in a form that can be turned in, ie. hard copies.

Monday, March 21st

Worksheets from Friday...

Worksheet 1: Fuel Worksheet
Worksheet 2: Thermite Worksheet

Welcome to an online PChem lab activity. This is a standard calorimetry lab that we have done previously in gen chem, but replaced it with the burning of food stuff because this was much more exciting...now you get to do it now.

If we were doing this in the lab, you would collect temperature vs time data for a set of three reactions:

NaOH (s) --> NaOH (aq)
NaOH (s) + HCl (aq) --> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)
NaOH (aq) + HCl (aq) --> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)

The data would loook like this (collected by A. Trenttin - Fall 2020):

These reactions are done in a "coffee cup calorimeter" and although the insulating properties of the cups is not great, we can compensate for this by carrying out the Tf analysis shown on the graph.

Note: some of the following values are estimates...you must use your values that show up in your lab notebook carbon copy.

Reaction 1 - data
NaOH (s) --> NaOH (aq)
- 3.51 g NaOH --> (40.00 g/mol) --> 0.0878 moles NaOH (s)
- ΔT = 34.4 - 22.0 = 12.4 oC
Reaction 2 - data
NaOH (s) + HCl (aq) --> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)
- 3.43 g NaOH --> (40.00 g/mol) --> 0.0856 moles NaOH (s)
- ΔT = 35.8 - 22.0 = 13.8 oC
Reaction 3 - data
NaOH (aq) + HCl (aq) --> NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)
- 1.76 g NaOH --> (40.00 g/mol) --> 0.0440 moles NaOH (s)
- ΔT = 23.9 - 22.0 = 1.9 oC

PLEASE stay tuned...we may have class on this day depending on our return travel plans.
