The term Thermochemistry refers to when heat is evolved or absorbed during a chemical reaction. When calculating the amount of energy, the number will always be expressed as a positive number. A negative sign will indicate whether the energy is evolved or absorbed. If the sign is negative, then the energy is evolved and if the sign is positive, then the energy is absorbed. The amount of heat that is released or absorbed will also be in units of Joules or Kilojoules per mol. There are two other…
Evaporation: The rate of heat transfer in the evaporator is calculated using equations 10 and 11 Q_in=(εC)_evap (T_(in,evap)-T_evap ) (10) Where ε is the effectiveness of the evaporator, C is the capacitance rate for the air or chilled water passing through the evaporator. Tevap is the temperature of refrigerant in evaporator and Tin, evap is the temperature of the air or chilled water at the inlet of the evaporator. Equation 11 express Qin in terms of enthalpy. Q_in=m ̇_ref (h_4-h_1)…
consequence of a decrease in the specific heat capacity of the solution compared to pure water. The specific heat capacity drops because the specific heat is lower for salt. Hence, when water is mixed with salt the specific heat value drops. In other words, it takes less energy to raise the temperature of the salt water by 1K than pure water. This means that the salt water heats up faster and eventually gets to its boiling point first. The heat capacity of NaCl has been found to be higher than…
Abstract: The purpose of this lab was to show the different absorption and emission rates of three different substances. Radiation laws, albedo, and specific heat are all reasons why this is achievable. An agreed upon hypothesis is that the sand will absorb the most heat due to the number of molecules, the moss will absorb the second most because it doesn't have as many molecules as sand, but it has more than water, which isn’t as complex. To complete this experiment, you need three beakers of…
Pectin yield was determined as weight of dry pectin against the weight of initial residues multiplied by 100%. Y=100(P/Bi) Where Y is the extracted pectin yield (%), P is the amount of extracted pectin in grams and Bi is the initial amount of sweet potato residues used to extract pectin. Equivalent weight and Degree of methoxylation The equivalent weight was determined according to the method by Barretina et al., (Barretina et al. 2012). 0.25g pectin was wetted with 5ml ethanol and topped…

They also used fire from sources in the environment but did not make it, made and used stone tools and their cranial capacity was around 850 to 1,200 milliliters Homo heidelbergensis is the species that is considered to be the transition between Homo erectus and Homo sapiens, these are the very first species that actively hunted large game due to improvement in tools, and their cranial capacity was between 1,000-2,000milliliters. Homo sapiens neanderthalensis is dated around 200,000 to 30,000…
early stage of an organism. Hypothesis: If organisms are bipedal, then 4 organisms or fossils will be bipedal based on the data provided. Variables: Dependent variable: Measurement of Bipedalism Measurement of Prognathism Measurement of Cranial Capacity Independent variable: The tools…
tools of Australopithecus afarensis who’s tools were more primitive than those of Homo erectus and modern day Homo sapiens. The development of more advanced tools relies on the increase of brain densities. As we get closer to the present the cranial capacities of hominins increase as does their ability to develop tools. This increase in tool development made them more favorable in terms of natural…
were vegetarians, hence they needed large molars. As time went by, they started to scavenge meat and started cooking food which eventually changed dentine to having canines and pre-molars. The presence of large cranium supports large brains. The cranial capacity directly co-relates to the species being more social and invention of tools. 3.…
