MITANTE, SHERYL JANE P.
ECE 11 SCHEMATIC DIAGARAM
Using a graduated cylinder, pour 75 mL of
distilled water into the Erlenmeyer flask.
Measure the initial temperature of the
water.
Determine the initial weight of the alcohol
lamp with ethanol including the cap using a
triple beam or electronic balance.
Prepare the experimental set-up as shown
ETHANOL
in Figure 4.1. Light the wick of the alcohol
lamp and heat the water for exactly 5
minutes.
After 5 minutes, remove the alcohol lamp
and extinguish the flame immediately by
placing the cap onto the wick. Let the wick
of the lamp cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, check the temperature of the
water bath until it reaches the peak value.
Record the peak temperature. When the
temperature of the wick has equilibrated to
room temperature, determine the final
weight of the alcohol lamp with the cap.
