The initial temperature of the water in a constant-pressure calorimeter is 14°C. A reaction takes place in the calorimeter, and the temperature rises
to 87°C. The calorimeter contains 254 g of water, which has a specific heat
of 4.18 J/(g.°C). Calculate the enthalpy change during this reaction.

since the atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus, as we move to the left on the periodic table, the electrostatic pull between the nucleus and the valence electron shell decreases. as we move down a group (vertical column), the valence shell energy level gets further and further from the nucleus.

a pan containing water is placed in a positio n where it is exposed to a 10 mile per hour wind. the pan contains a uniform depth of 1.27 cm of water, is quite wide, and has a length of 2.44 m in the wind direction. the water in the pan is at a constant temperature of 15.5 °c.
