energy moves. Each substance has a heat capacity. When substances react energy is either absorbed or released in the form of heat. If the energy is absorbed we say that the reaction is endothermic and if energy is released the reaction is exothermic. In thermodynamics “energy and its changing forms” 1 are studied. To find the heat of a reaction, a simple device called a calorimeter is used. By using this device and taking measurements of mass temperature the heat of a reaction can be determined
Experiment 8 Dystan Medical Supply Company—Cold Packs and Hot Packs IN CHEM S125 1705 EXP CHEMISTRY I HONORS Introduction Hot and cold packs are used to treat injuries in the hospital to minor injuries at home. For example, cold packs are used to keep a patient’s body temperature down when they become deathly hot or to decrease inflammation in a sprained ankle. Hot packs can be used to reduce muscle spasms, muscle soreness, inflammation, and relieve

best calorimeter and plastic is the worst calorimeter. At first glance this seems reasonable, however, the calculated calorimeter constant for plastic was negative, which is highly unlikely correct because this suggests that plastic absorbed all the heat from the system, rather than acting as an insulator for the system. In addition, the calorimeter constant for ceramic was calculated to be 87.3 J/C, which was abnormally high compared to the rest of the materials. Styrofoam is the next best calorimeter
Turner 1-15-2013 ESP Lab Informal Lab Write Up Partners Joe, and Nasareen Heat Loss “Window” -Hypothesis: The window will have a lower average temperature (°C), than the wall because windows/glass have a lower resistance to heat and energy loss. -Null Hypothesis: Heat loss is the same through windows compared to walls. -In this experiment we tested the temperatures of two different surfaces (glass window vs. wall) with a laser thermometer in a pretty temperature controlled room. What we
Heat-Knicks Series Preview Don’t expect the Knicks to get run over. by Peter Walsh / @goinginsquad Somewhere, David Stern has a shit-eating grin on his face. Less than six months removed from a PR nightmare that nearly saw the NBA lose the regular season in its entirety, the rigorous regular season left behind a whirlwind of stories, injuries and memorable performances. I won’t sit here and bore you with a season recap since you will surely be bombarded with those types of pieces over
Sustainable energy is the sustainable provision of sustainable energy development that fulfills the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. For examples, hydroelectricity, solar energy, wind energy, wave power, etc. In recent years, the use of solar power and wind power is at an unprecedented rate. Thus, the similarities and differences between solar and wind power deserve our further study. The first similarity between solar and wind powers
------------------------------------------------- HOT VS. COLD MAGNETS Determining Whether Cold Magnets Work Better than Heated Ones Abstract Magnets are used in our daily lives. We use them to hang drawing on our fridge but they can also be used to orient ourselves when we are lost. Magnets are used in compasses and you can use them anywhere in the world. When you travel you use compasses whether it is to orient yourself or it's just something you have. But do climates affect the strength
-Metalloids are usually more brittle and less malleable than most metals. -NONmetals are located on the RIGHT of the periodic table. Exothermic and endothermic reactions (how can you tell which is which) -exothermic GIVES OFF heat (energy) and -endothermic TAKES IN heat (energy) -ex. Nitrogen + oxygen + energy nitrogen oxide ENDOTHERMIC b/c energy went IN. Law of conservation of mass and law of conservation of energy -mass ---the mass before a reaction will ALWAYS equal the mass after
Vacation at the Beach VS Vacation at the Mountains When summer time is near, people start looking forward to plan their vacation. People want their vacation to be fun and relaxing. I find the two most common places people choose for taking a vacation are the beaches and the mountains. Both places offer different kinds of fun activities but the mountains and the beaches are different in many ways. Three major differences are; the weather, different types of activities, and the risk of going to the
