VII. Interpretation
As you can see in the Table 1, the equilibrium temperature between water and
Cu is 23.31 which means that the Cu, lose heat of -176.69 °C, since it is at the higher
temperature initially. The water gains heat of 3.31 °C as it is at the lower temperature
initially. The Ag lose heat of -177.97 °C, and the water gains heat with 2.03 °C. The Sn
lose heat with -178.12°C, and the water gains heat of 2.03 °C. And lastly, the unknown
metal lose heat of -176.67 °C, and the water gains heat with 3.33 °C. That being said,
the heat lost by the metal is exothermic, and the heat gained by the water is
endothermic.
In table 2, the metal and water have the same initial temperature. The water and
Nacl have the same changes in temperature at -1.74 °C with equilibrium temperature at
18.26°C. Both of metal and water only lose heat. The water and NaOH have the same
changes in temperature at 29.2 °C with equilibrium temperature at 49.20°C. Both metal
and water only gain heat. The water and (NH4NO3) have the same changes in
temperature at -8.42 °C with equilibrium temperature at 11.58°C Both metal and water
only lose heat. Lastly, the water and unknown substance have the same changes in
temperature at 12.52 °C with equilibrium temperature at 32.52°C. Both metal and water
only gain heat. In this case, with the same initial temperature of water and metal, it will
either gain or
For the calculation, the exothermic reaction is energetically downhill, if ΔHrxn is
negative; thus, the enthalpy of the products is less than the enthalpy of the reactants.
On the other hand, an endothermic reaction is energetically uphill if ΔHrxn is positive,
which means that the enthalpy of the products is greater than the enthalpy of the
reactants.
VIII. Conclusion
For the overall simulation, we have observed and noticed that heat plays an
important role as we conduct the simulation. In this simulation, we have measured the
amount of heat that is absorbed or released during a reaction. The heat in the metal will
transfer to the water until it reaches thermal equilibrium. In the first experiment that
involves the different metals like Copper (Cu), Silver (Ag), and Tin (Sn), we have

noticed that the water absorbs the heat from the metal and the metal loses heat and this
is where they will reach thermal equilibrium. On the other hand, when the water and
metal have the same initial temperature, it will either loss or gain heat. Another thing is
that, the form or kind of solid also affects the simulation because on the first simulation,
we use solid metals in which is requires higher temperature to be dissolved in the
calorimeter and on the other hand, the second simulation use powdered solids in which
it dissolves and the powdered solids are distributed well throughout the calorimeter that
is why it doesn’t require a higher temperature to dissolve and mix properly with water.
1. After putting the metals in the calorimeter, does the water inside the
container gained the same temperature as the initial temperature of the
metal? Yes or no, and why? Give a brief explanation regarding the concept
behind.
No, the water gained a temperature to attain thermal equilibrium, not the
metal's initial temperature. When a heated metal at 200 degrees Celsius and
a water at 20 degrees Celsius are placed on a calorimeter, the heat of the
metal will transfer from the metal to the water until the two substances attain
the same temperature or reach thermal equilibrium. The temperature of the
metal would decrease while the temperature of the water would increase until
they reached thermal equilibrium. With that, the metal loses heat since it is at
the higher temperature initially. The water gains heat as it is at the lower
temperature initially. The heat lost by the metal is exothermic, and the heat
gained by the water is endothermic.
2. Look for the literature specific heat of each given metals and calculate the
percent difference of your calculated specific heat and literature specific heat.
What might be the factor of not getting the exact literature specific heat in
conducting the experiment in real life?
