Thermochemistry is the study of energy changes that occur during chemical reactions and changes in state. There are two different processes that have to do with the absorption and release of heat. In the endothermic process, the system picks up heat, as the surroundings lose heat. In the exothermic process, heat is released to its surroundings. Heat either goes in or goes out. We are going to make ice cream and we are going to identify which of these two different processes is used.

It is the changes in energy by the state it’s going through. The mixture converts into a solid because of the change of its surroundings, which was the bag with ice and rock salt. This lab project helps us see the changes on temperature and how the milk was affected to this change. Post Lab Questions 1. Is the freezing an exothermic or endothermic? a. Endothermic 2. Why did the outside of the bag get wet? (assume your bag did not leak) a. The ice was melting due to the heat of our bodies released. 3. Describe the transfers of the energy that occurred in the lab between the air and the bag and between the ice cream and salted ice. a. The air filled the bag and the ice cream was formed because the melted ice gave it coldness. 4. What happened shortly after you added the salt to the ice cubes? Was the temperature above or below the freezing point of the water? a. The salt reduced the temperature. The temperature went below the freezing point. 5. What does this tell you about the freezing point of fresh water lake or salt water ocean? a. The freezing point of fresh water of lake is not as cold as the salt water of the ocean because of the
-By using salt, that freezing point can be lowered which forces the ice to melt and prevents the water from freezing or re-freezing. (2013). Why Does Salt Melt Ice? - Ice Melter Distributor | Salt Supplier | KISSNER. Retrieved October 26, 2016, from http://www.kissner.com/why-does-salt-melt-ice/
An exothermic reaction is one, which gives out energy to the surroundings usually in the form of heat and is shown by a rise in temperature. This is because, during a chemical reaction old bonds are broken and new bonds are formed; the
Convection is a transfer of internal energy into or out of an object by the physical movement of a surrounding fluid that transfers the internal energy along with its mass. According to Oxford Dictionary, convection is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder or denser material to sink under gravity's influence, that results in transfer of heat. Two fluids are liquid and gas.The fluid above a hot surface expands, becomes less dense, and rises.This applies to objects such as steam from a hot cup of coffee turning cool, ice melting like heat moving to ice from the air, or frozen material becoming raw like how frozen food thaws more quickly under cold running water. When
Pressure on the ice reduces the melting point. If pressure is afterward reduced, water will freeze again. This is called regelation. When a player skates across the ice, he or she applies a lot of pressure, leaving a trail of water where the blades were. Because the pressure leaves quickly, the water freezes to ice again (Haché 22). Nevertheless, pressure is not the only factor that causes this melting. Friction also takes part because it creates heat. With help...
If the temperature increased, then there would be an increase in the amount of fat mass production. This theory was refuted and showed no effect of the amount of production in the end of the procedure. The effect of temperature on fat mass production resulted in the same percentages of fat in all various temperatures. The reason; the amount of cream used was not manipulated. If the amount of cream changed; that would become a contraceptive experiment. The time butter separation occurred took to form butter varied, because of the different temperatures the creams were kept at had an effect on the time the formation process took. One question is why can butter form in the first place from this liquid. The reason butter appeared is because the cream was produced before homogenization. The cream contains fat, which includes different parts. As shaking the container filled with cream. The individual fat particles experience fission. Eventually, the whole mass has separated and created a solid butter cream. These results have occurred at every temperature to help support the conclusion that the temperature had no effect on the percentage produced at the end of the data
In this lab, I determined the amount of heat exchanged in four different chemical reactions only using two different compounds and water. The two compounds used were Magnesium Hydroxide and Citric Acid. Both compounds were in there solid states in powder form. Magnesium Hydroxide was mixed with water and the change in heat was measured using a thermometer. The next reaction combined citric acid and magnesium hydroxide in water. The change in heat was measured as well. For the third reaction citric acid was placed in water to measure the change in heat. In the last reaction, citric acid was combined with water. The heat exchanged was again measured. It is obvious we were studying the calorimetry of each reaction. We used a calorimeter
The idea was suggested by James Thomason in 1850. Additionally, James Thomason computed that a pressure of 466 athmospher is enough to decrease the melting point of water to -3.5 from 0. As a result of this a thin liquid layer on ice will occur. However, he could not prove how hockey is played under -3.5
Even though, there are higher heat temperatures surrounding the ice, its temperature doesn’t change in a solid state. Rudolf Clausius, a German physicist and mathematician, born in 1822, would further develop Mr. Carnot theory of heat and motion. He introduced strict principles of the second law of thermodynamics, which explains that the internal state of a system, in this case the ice cube, and the external state, the water, will eventually reach equilibrium. “Every force tends to give motion to the body on which it acts; but it may be prevented from doing so by other opposing forces, so that equilibrium results, and the body remains at rest.” (Hmolpedia Rudolf Clausius, Website). In other words, is that equilibrium is a direct result of the forces of motion acting on each of the bodies. Therefore, even if the ice is not subjected to melting temperatures, because of heat motion, equilibrium will eventually happen. Moreover, with this perception in mind, Mr. Clausius also expanded on thermodynamics and indicated due to constant disarray of elements; entropy is the ideal state that the universe will eventually reach. In short, he states that all natural events happening around us are contributing to a universal chaos. Subsequently, Rudolf Clausius supported the idea that the universe also acted as a whole and all the events happenings after
Conduction can be seen when the ice touched the cans full of insulation. The cooled cans touched the installation inside the can making it cooler. Convection can be found al over the place in our experiments. When we heated our model dwelling with the heat lamp the outside of the house heated. This in turn heated the air inside making the air temperature rise.
Works Cited Although heat and temperature are correlated terms in daily speech, there is a crucial difference in their definitions in the study of physics. In specific, heat is a form of thermal energy that can be transformed from one object to another; whereas temperature is a measurement of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter (“Methods of Heat Transfer”, n.d.). Heat transfer indicates the movement of heat energy from one place to another caused by the difference in temperature (“Chapter 16: Heat Transfer”, n.d.). Heat will always move from the hotter object to the cooler one, until they both reach the same temperature, indicating thermal equilibrium (“Chapter 16: Heat Transfer”, n.d.). There are three primary mechanisms for heat transfer, including convection, conduction, and radiation.
Heat is a type of energy that transfers between two pieces of matter that have different temperatures. There are three ways heat can be transferred. The first way is through radiation and the second is convection. The third way is through conduction which is when an object or material conducts the heat from one substance through itself and to another. This is the method I will be focusing on.
Introduction: A phase change is a result from the kinetic energy (heat) either decreasing or increasing to change the state of matter (i.e. water, liquid, or gas.) Thus saying, freezing is the phase change from a liquid to a solid which results from less kinetic energy/heat. Also, melting is the phase change from a solid to a liquid which results from adding kinetic energy/heat. So, the freezing and melting point of something is the temperature at which these phase changes occur. Therefore, a phase change will occur when a vial of 10 mL of water is placed into a cup of crushed ice mixed with four spoonfuls with 5 mL of sodium chloride for 30 minutes. If 10 mL of water is placed in an ice bath, it will then freeze at 5 degrees Celsius because the kinetic energy will leave quicker with the ice involved. The purpose of this lab is to observe what temperature the water must be to undergo a phase change.
Gases and liquids are usually associated with convection. Once warmer areas of gas or liquid rise to cooler areas of the gas or liquid, convection occurs. As this happens, cooler gases or liquids take the role of the warmer areas that have risen higher. This cycle will continue to circulate as a result. There are also two types of convective heat transfer: free or natural convection and forced convection.
Thermal Energy: Matter is made up of particles called molecules. A rise in the temperature of matter makes these particles move and vibrate faster. The energy that comes from the temperature of the matter is called thermal energy. Eg: When we boil water, the molecules start moving faster, causing it to heat. This boiling water has thermal energy.
When the water in food forms ice crystals that will break down the cell structure, this can affect the texture of the food. Texture all depends on water content and treatment of the food that is being frozen. Blanching and using syrup help to protect the texture of some foods
