Neutralization Enthalpy Lab Evaluation Help


Annabelle

Recommended Posts

Aim: the aim of this experiment is to determine the difference of enthalpy changes of neutralization reactions of strong acids and weak acids.

 

So my strong acids were hydrochloric and nitric and weak were citric and ethanoic. Most of them are within literature value range or under which is obviously attributed to heat loss. However my ethanoic ended up being a lot higher than the others. What kind of error is that? What would be a suitable improvement? What other errors can I mention beyond more insulation, trials and accounting for the specific heat capacities of my equipment (PS what's an improvement to this one?).
