目的
様々な塩(NaOH、CaCl₂、NH₄NO₃、KNO₃)の溶解エンタルピーを比較し、溶解が発熱または吸熱になり得ることを示す。
背景
Students often assume dissolving always releases heat. This experiment tests four salts: NaOH and CaCl₂ dissolve exothermically (temperature rises), while NH₄NO₃ and KNO₃ dissolve endothermically (temperature drops). The results illustrate that lattice energy vs hydration energy determines the sign of ΔH.
安全上の警告
- NaOH is extremely corrosive
- NH₄NO₃ is an oxidizer
- Wear goggles and gloves
必要なPPE
材料
-
Sodium hydroxide pellets (10 g)Exothermic

Distilled water (400 mL)
器具
手順
Add 100 mL water to each of four labeled cups. Record the initial temperature of each.
Add 10 g NaOH to cup 1. Stir and record the maximum temperature.
Add 10 g CaCl₂ to cup 2. Stir and record the maximum temperature.
Add 10 g NH₄NO₃ to cup 3. Stir and record the minimum temperature.
Add 10 g KNO₃ to cup 4. Stir and record the minimum temperature.
Create a table ranking the salts from most exothermic to most endothermic.
Discuss why some dissolve exothermically and others endothermically (lattice energy vs hydration energy).
予想される結果
NaOH: +15-20°C rise. CaCl₂: +10-15°C rise. NH₄NO₃: -15-20°C drop. KNO₃: -5-10°C drop. Clear demonstration that dissolution can be either exothermic or endothermic.
後片付け
NaOH and CaCl₂ solutions should be neutralized before disposal. All solutions can be poured down the drain after dilution.
