For example, does the type of alcohol make a difference? b. The input variables I have identified are type of alcohol, size of wick, distance of wick to bas of calorimeter, amount of soot on calorimeter, amount of water in calorimeter. c. I will use temperature as my outcome variable by measuring the temperature at set time intervals d. I predict that the different types of alcohol will affect the temperature change (energy released) because each molecule of the different alcohols gives different bonds, when the bonds are broken, different amounts of energy are given of when the new bonds are formed. e. f. For each experiment in the series I will put 100cm3 of water into the calorimeter and make sure the underside is scraped...
