NAME__________ __________ DATE _____PERIOD___ ADVANCED CHEMISTRY JAN 20. 2009 LAB # 5 HEAT OF FORMATION OF MgCl2. ABSTRACT: Introduction: Experimental design. A) For each step we did, indicate why, what was the role of each reagent and any technical problems encountered. DATA: A) List all of your masses, your ∆T determination and any observations. CALCULATIONS: A) Calculate the heat of formation in kJ per mole. Use the equation q=MC∆T. Assume the calorimeter is pure water. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION, LOOK UP THE ACCEPTED HEAT OF FORMATION AND COMPARE TO YOURS.
