Question

what is Hess’s Law? Explain which part(s) of the experiment (procedure and/or 
treatment) it is applied.

Heat is a form of energy, sometimes called thermal energy, which can pass
spontaneously from an object at high temperature to an object at a lower temperature. If
the two objects are in contact, given enough time, they will reach the same temperature.
Heat flow is typically measured in a device called calorimeter. A calorimeter is
simply a container with insulating walls, made so that essentially no heat is exchanged
between the contents and the surroundings. Within the calorimeter, phase changes and
reactions may occur, or heat may flow from one part of the contents to another, but no
heat transfers into or out of the calorimeter. One type of calorimeter is the constant-
pressure calorimeter. Typically, it can be made from styrofoam cup or a more advanced
one as shown in Figure 1. These devices are used to measure enthalpy changes in
physical or chemical processes.

In this experiment, the heat capacity of a calorimeter and the heat involved in the
following reactions will be determined and compared.
Reaction 1: Solid sodium hydroxide dissolves in water to form an aqueous solution of
ions.
NaOH(s) Na (aq) + OH(aq) + X₁J
AH₁ = -X₁ J
Reaction 2: Solid sodium hydroxide reacts with an aqueous solution of hydrogen
chloride to form water and an aqueous solution of sodium chloride.
NaOH(s) + H(aq) + Cl(aq)
H₂O + Na'(aq) + Cl(aq) + X₂J
AH₂ = -X₂J
