Lesson Plans:
Activation Energy
The student will define the terms endothermic, exothermic, and activation
energy.
Calorimetry
To develop an understanding of the fundamentals of calorimetry.
That the
students will learn how to manipulate and set up the equipment and the
development of increasing and decreasing amounts of heat.
Heat of
Solution of a Solid
To measure experimentally the amount of heat involved in the dissolving of
ammonium nitrate and of sodium acetate in water.
Heat of
Reaction - Hess's Law
In this experiment, you will measure and compare the quantity of heat
involved in three reactions. These heats of reaction will be measured using
a styrofoam calorimeter.
Experimental
Applications of Hess's Law
In this lab, you will conduct two such investigations. In the first one we
will examine the combustion of magnesium. In the second
investigation, we will examine the heat of formation of solid calcium
hydroxide.
EXOTHERMIC AND ENDOTHERMIC
REACTIONS
Students are to observe several exothermic and endothermic reactions,
determine the changes that take place in a chemical reaction, and to
observe how fast a reaction is taking place and what factors influence a
chemical reaction.
Measuring the Heat Energy
of a Chemical Change
To compare the heat conducting properties of water and paper by boiling
water.
