STUDENTS 2 SCIENCE Virtual lab Experiment
Thermochemistry
An investigation of thermochemistry: exo-‐ and endothermic reactions.
A classroom Experiment in Kit Form for Grades 9-‐12
Brief Background:
This experiment is intended to teach students about the basics of thermodynamics. They will learn about exo-‐ and endothermic processes and how energy changes can be additive in a controlled environment. They will be introduced to the first law of thermodynamics and the concept of enthalpy. Students will measure temperature changes associated with dissolution and chemical reactions and make use of these observations to make predictions when they change the reaction conditions. Applications of thermochemical principals to modern uses are demonstrated.
Safety
Students and teachers must wear properly fitting goggles as they prepare for, conduct, and clean up from the activities in the kit. Read and follow all safety warnings. Also review the Materials Safety Data Sheets. Students must wash their hands with soap and water after the activities.

Instructor/Teacher Procedure and guide
1. Thermodynamics A. First Law of Thermodynamics-‐Law of Conservation of Energy. B. Total energy within a closed system will remain constant C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can however be converted
into something else.
2. Endothermic Reactions A. An endothermic process or reaction is one where heat is absorbed
from the system and used by the system to do something. B. When heat is used, the temperature decreases.
3. Exothermic Reactions A. An exothermic process or reaction is one where heat is released into
the system because of some process happening in the system. B. When heat is released, the temperature increases.

4. Endothermic and Exothermic Examples using water A. When steam at 100 degrees Celsius condenses to form water at 100
degrees Celsius, energy is released to the system. B. When water at 0 degrees Celsius freezes to form ice at 0 degrees
Celsius, energy is released. C. When water at 100 degrees Celsius vaporizes to form steam at 100
degrees Celsius, heat is absorbed. D. When ice at 0 degrees Celsius melts to form water at 0 degrees
Celsius, energy is absorbed.
5. Experiment 1: Hot Hands A. The exothermic process in Hot Hands is based on a chemical reaction
where finely powdered iron metal is oxidized by atmospheric oxygen and becomes iron oxide, or rust.
B. This is an exothermic reaction that gives off a lot of heat for a long time.

C. Place the thermometer directly in front of you so you can see the temperature of the system, which in this case is the room where the packaged hand warmer was kept.
D. Open hand warmer and place it on top of the thermometer bulb. E. After a few minutes, note the temperature. Do not let the hand
warmer sit such that the temperature rises above 65 degrees Celsius.
6. Experiment 2: The Reusable Hand Warmer A. Works by the heat that is released during the crystallization of sodium
acetate trihydrate. B. Sodium acetate trihydrate melts at 58 degrees Celsius. If it is heated
above this temperature and cooled slowly it doesn’t easily go back to a solid. It will stay as a liquid.
C. If a single crystal of sodium acetate trihydrate is introduced into the liquid, it spontaneously crystallizes and releases the stored energy as heat.
D. To get this hand warmer to work, squeeze the button in the pouch and watch what happens.
E. Place the hand warmer on the thermometer and see how warm it gets. It will be less than 58 degrees Celsius because the room is removing some of the heat as it is being released.
7. Flameless Heater and Other Applications A. Used to heat over 1 billion meals for the US armed forces. (MRE’s) B. Contains finely powdered magnesium metal, alloyed with a small
amount of iron, and table salt. C. To activate the reaction, a small amount of water is added, and the
boiling point of water is quickly reached as the reaction proceeds. The salt dissolves in the added water and causes each of the iron and magnesium metal pairs to act like tiny batteries. Since the batteries

are in water, they short circuit, generating enormous heat. This boils the water, which can then heat a food pack placed inside the flameless heater.
8. Dissolution of Salts: Exothermic vs. Endothermic
A. The first thing that happens is that the ionic bonds between the cation, the positively charged ion, and the anion, the negatively charged ion, are broken. This requires energy and is endothermic.
B. Water molecules also need to be separated so they can align with the individual ions. This too requires energy and is endothermic.
C. Then attractive bonds are made between water and each of the ions. This releases energy and is exothermic.
D. Whether the act of dissolving is endothermic or exothermic depends on the amounts of each of these energies.

13. Enthalpy A. Enthalpy, which has the symbol H, is the amount of heat used or
released in a system. B. We are concerned with the change in enthalpy, delta H of a process or
reaction. C. If the change in enthalpy is greater than zero, heat is used and the
process is endothermic. D. If the change in enthalpy is less than zero, heat is released and the
process is exothermic. E. Explanation of the dissolution experiments;
i. Calcium Chloride 1. Positive change in enthalpy (endothermic process)
when we broke the hydrogen bonds of the solvent, water.
© 2017 Students 2 Science Inc. Revised 1.9.17 All Rights Reserved.
2. When the water molecules surrounded and bonded with the calcium and chloride ions, there was a large negative change in enthalpy (exothermic process)
3. This negative change for bond making was larger than the total positive change for bond breaking therefore the process is exothermic.
ii. Ammonium Chloride 1. The positive enthalpy change for breaking the
ammonium and chloride ions apart is very high; a lot of energy was used (endothermic process).
2. When the water molecules surrounded and bonded with the ammonium and chloride ions, there was a relatively small negative change in enthalpy (exothermic process).
3. This negative change for bond making was less than the total positive change for bond breaking therefore the process is endothermic

F. Record the final temperature G. Subtract the initial temperature from the final temperature and
record your results. H. Was the reaction exo-‐ or endo-‐thermic? (endothermic)
i. Dissolution of the salts releases energy ii. Removal of one of the 3 oxygen atoms and hydrogen atom from
the carbon in the bicarbonate ion uses a large amount of energy.
iii. The energy released in forming carbon dioxide and water is much less than this, so the chemical reaction is endothermic.
18. Disposal and Clean-‐up A. All solutions can be poured down the drain. B. Solid chemicals can be re-‐capped to be used again. C. Experimental supplies (cups and pipets and scoops) can be rinsed and

Students have explored endo-‐and exo-‐thermic Reactions. They have learned that these reactions are governed by the choices of reactants and the quantity of energy released or absorbed is directly proportional to the amount of reactants used. Proper choices of reaction conditions provides for useful industrial applications-‐hand warmers, MREs, etc.
