Task

Take a look at the following photo and tell what processes are shown in the picture.

[Illustration 1]

Procedurem64d79066af7a38b8_1528446435040_0Procedure

Task

Watch slideshow “Determining the melting pointmelting pointmelting point and the solidification of calcium oxalate”.

Note: Calcium oxalate - an organic chemical compound, calcium salt of oxalic acid. This compound is contained in crop plants, among others in sorrel. It is not absorbed by people.

[Slideshow]

Task

Answer the questions:

1. At what temperature does calcium oxalate start to melt?
2. At what temperature does calcium oxalate start to solidify?
3. What happens to its molecules during this process?
4. Which of these processes needs energy delivered?
5. During which process the energy is given up by the body?

Answers:

1. Calcium oxalate starts to melt at 100°C.

2. Calcium oxalate starts to solidify at 100°C.

3. Molecules lose the ability to move relatively and vibrate only around the equilibrium positions.

4. Melting requires the supply of energy in the form of heat.

5. Emitting of energy by the body in the form of heat is needed during solidification.

Task

Look at photographs of three amorphous bodies (they do not have a regular internal structure), which through heating become softer, plastic and liquid.

Task

Answer the following questions:

1. Is it possible to determine the melting temperature of the substances which are shown in the photographs?

2. Will these substances have a constant melting pointmelting pointmelting point?

3. Does the molecular structure of the body affect its melting pointmelting pointmelting point?

Answers:

1. No, because there is a gradual softeningsofteningsoftening of the substance.

2. No, because it softens in a certain temperature range.

3. Yes, softeningsofteningsoftening concerns bodies with a disordered internal structure

Conclusion:

In the examples presented here, the phenomenon of melting bodies occurs gradually in a certain temperature range. This phenomenon is called softening. Softening occurs in solid bodies whose molecules do not form a regular internal structure.

Experiment 1

Determination of the boiling point of water.

Hypothesis:

During heating, the water temperature rises until a constant temperature of 100°C is reached. It is the boiling point of the water.

The following equipment will be necessary:

1. a beaker,

2. a burner,

3. water,

4. a thermometer,

5. a watch,

6. a beaker rack,

7. the thermometer handle.

Instruction:

1. Fill the beaker with water to approximately 34 of its volume.

2. Put the beaker into the rack over the burner.

3. Place the thermometer on a tripod in such way that its tip is dipped in water (the tip of the thermometer cannot touch the bottom or the sides of the container).

4. Record the water temperature.

5. Turn on the burner.

6. Record the temperature every 45 seconds until the water boils.

7. Record the temperature for the next 135 seconds.

8. Make a graph of the temperature value of water since its heating.

Conclusion:

The temperature rise of water took place until it reached a constant temperature of 100°C. At this temperature, the water boiled. The unchanging temperature indicates that it is a phase transition. In this case, it is the transformation of the liquid phase into a gas phase.

Task

Read the questions and answers concerning water condensation:

Questions:

1. What is the process reverse to evaporationevaporationevaporation?

2. At what temperature is the water condensation process observed in nature?

3. What is the water temperature obtained during this experiment?

Answers:

1. The inverse process to the evaporation process is the condensation process.
2. The process of liquefaction in nature takes place in the temperature range from 0°C to 100°C and depends on the degree of air humidity.
3. The water obtained during liquefaction has the temperature of the air from which it was formed:
a) an example is the formation of fog, which consists of microscopic droplets of water suspended in air with high humidity,
b) if water arises from water vapor obtained during the boiling of water, this process takes place at a constant temperature of 100°C,
c) the condensation is also the formation of dew in the summer on the grass after a clear night.

Task

Suggest an experiment in which it is possible to observe the process of water condensation.

Answer:

After removing from the freezer bottle I will be watching drops of water on the bottle.

Lesson summarym64d79066af7a38b8_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

The melting phenomenon consists of changing the state from solid into liquid. It occurs at a constant temperature, called the melting temperature.

Freezing is a change in the state of body focus from liquid to solid. This process occurs when the bodies are cooled. Cooling is needed to absorb heat. This process is reversible, it can run in the opposite direction (melting) when the body starts to be heated. Heating is necessary here because the body absorbs heat when it melts. The melting point is the same as the freezing point.

The temperatures described are different for different substances.

Some bodies change from solid to liquid state gradually in a certain temperature range. You can not give one specific transformation temperature value for them. This process is called softening.

The condensation phenomenon is a process that is the reverse of the process of liquid evaporation. The liquid evaporation process occurs on the surface of the liquid, if this process takes place in its whole volume then it is called boiling.
Evaporation requires providing the evaporation heat to the body, and condensation requires the condensation heat to be dissipated into the environment.
