Fuels and enthalpy...

Today we looked at the enthalpy involved in the combustion of a variety of fuels. "Combustion" or "burning" means reacting a fuel with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water for hydrocarbon fuels. We will look over the numbers a little more on Wednesday.

For EVERYONE in lab this week, you may have noticed that there is no experimental procedure included in your lab manual. The procedure is posted on my mnstate.edu website under the Chem 150L link. This is for everyone in my labs AND Dr. Marasinghe's labs.

There's a new MC assignment posted, due Sunday. See you all in class on Wednesday.
