Mariano Bacigalupi 17/11/02 Group four chemistry practical Energy practical Is there a relation between the structure of different alcohols and the energy release when burn? Aim The aim of this experiment is to determine if the energy release data collected from different alcohols in a simple calorimeter has any relation which their atomic structure. Hypothesis The longer the molecule and the bigger the atoms on the molecule of the alcohol the more energy it will have. The method use to get the require data The first thin that needs to be done is to measure the heat capacity of the calorimeter that is going to be used. Put together a calorimeter as in fig. 1. Measure a fix amount of water (like as I used my case 270 g). Use an alcohol with a now heat capacity. Put the alcohol in a burner and light it wait until you got a steady flame on the burner. Empty the burner. Then measure the mass...
