Thermochemistry Advanced (University) 60 分钟 ~$15.00

目标

测量三个相关反应的焓变,证明ΔH1+ΔH2=ΔH3,从而验证赫斯定律。

背景

Hess's law states that the total enthalpy change for a reaction is independent of the pathway. This is verified by measuring: (1) NaOH(s) → NaOH(aq), (2) NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq), and (3) NaOH(s) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq). The sum ΔH1 + ΔH2 should equal ΔH3.

安全警告

  • NaOH pellets are extremely corrosive and generate heat when dissolved
  • HCl is corrosive
  • Wear goggles and gloves throughout

5

Reaction 3: Add 50 mL 1M HCl to the calorimeter. Record temperature. Add 2 g NaOH pellets directly. Record max temperature.

8 分钟 Very exothermic
6

Calculate ΔH3 for combined dissolution + neutralization.

5 分钟
7

Compare ΔH1 + ΔH2 with ΔH3. They should be approximately equal, verifying Hess's law.

预期结果

ΔH1 (dissolution) ≈ -44 kJ/mol, ΔH2 (neutralization) ≈ -57 kJ/mol, ΔH3 (combined) ≈ -101 kJ/mol. ΔH1 + ΔH2 should equal ΔH3 within experimental error (±10%).

清理

Neutralize all solutions before disposal. Rinse calorimeter cups. Dry and store equipment.
