Group+4

Below, please create a numbered list of all the materials that you will need to create your calorimeter. Keep in mind that the money tree that the science department planted last year hasn't bloomed yet, so if you ask for some titanium or a kilogram of plutonium, it's probably not going to happen.

Monsieur Syracuse, Upon planning this lab, we have come to realize that we have the need for the following items, and please get them without delay:

1)Flat bottom flask thingy 2)Small beaker of water 3)Aluminum foil 4)Water 5)Peanuts 6)Paperclip 7)Clamp 8)PENCIL 9)LabPro 10)Temperature probe 11)Calorimeter ingredients 12)Mathes 13)Graduated cylinder 14)Sour Patch Kids 15)Sour Skittles 16)Goobers 17)Popcorn 18)Beanbag chairs 19)Movies 20)Portable DVD Player 21)Pillows 22)All day pass to get out of class 23)Money 24)3 fancy cars 25)Platypus 26)Llama 27)Koala 28)100 averages in bio =: ] [ :=

 * p.s**. thank you, and we hope this isn't too much to ask of you.
 * p.p.s** Merci Beaucoup!

Below, please report your results so that we can share them with the rest of the class. Include a description (or better yet...a picture!) of your design, the values you obtained, your percent error, and some breif conclusions.

Temperature Change for the 3 trials 1.) 14.4 degrees celsius 2.) 22.4 degrees celsius 3.) 18.7 degrees celsius

Energy in Joules for the 3 trials 1.) 1205.7984 J 2.) 1885.064832 J 3.) 1573.692516 J

Joules per gram for each of the 3 trials 1.) 803.8656 J/g 2.) 1713.695302 J/g 3.) 874.27362 J/g

Average Joules per gram

1130.611507 J/g

% error= your value-accepted value/acceped value x100

% error= 1130.611507 - 23908.57/ 23908.57 x100

% error= 22777.95849/ 23908.57 x100

% error= 952711036 x100

We were so far off because of human error, we lost some heat energy, and we didnt get to burn all of the peanuts because the fire kept going out, disabling us from getting an accurate energy measurement.
