Graded Assignment Lab Report Answer the questions below. When you have finished, submit this assignment to your teacher by the due date for full credit. (8 points) 1. For each of your three trials state the following: heat needed to melt the ice (q) enthalpy of fusion percent error from the accepted enthalpy of fusion of water of 334 J/g Answer: Mass of ice (m_ice) = 10 g Temperature change (ΔT) = 10°C Heat needed to melt the ice (q): q = 10 g * 4.18 J/g°C * 10°C = 418 J Enthalpy of fusion (ΔHf): ΔHf = q / m_ice = 418 J / 10 g = 41.8 J/g Percent Error: % Error = | (41.8 J/g - 334 J/g) / 334 J/g | * 100% ≈ 25.7% (7 points) 2. List three sources of error that could account for the differences between your values for the enthalpy of fusion of water and the accepted value of 334 J/g. Answer: Heat Loss: Warmer surroundings can steal heat, making it seem like less energy melted the ice (lowers your result). Un melted Ice: Not all ice melting means less heat used than expected (lowers your result). Temperature Mess-ups: Inaccurate temperature readings mess up the heat transfer calculation, throwing off your final answer. (5 points) 3. What was your average percent error for all three trials? In this experiment you did three trials. Why was it suggested that you do three trials and not fewer? Answer: We repeat experiments (3 trials in this case) to determine random errors that can occur due to various factors. By calculating the average percent error (individual errors added up and divided by number of trials), you get a sense of how much your results typically deviate from the accepted value. © Stride, Inc.
