Planning In this investigation I will be burning fuels to heat up a beaker of water. I will be burning methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol. Method * I will Measure 50cm of water in to a glass beaker and place the beaker into the grasp of the clamp stand. Then I will record the starting temperature of the water and weigh the spirit burner with the lid on. I will put the chosen fuel burner under the beaker and light the fuel then leave the fuel to burn for two minutes and record temperature of the water every 30 seconds. At the end I will record the final temperature of the water...
