[CHM 111] Calorimetry Lab Reminders

[Andrew J. Pounds]

Just a couple of reminders...

1. The sign of Enthlapy is important.  If your reactions were
exothermic, the sign of the enthalpy should reflect that.

2. The enthalpies you are determining are molar quantities.  In all
three reactions you should divide the measured heat of the reaction (q)
by the moles of NaOH that reacted.
