It’s Just a Phase – Heating and Cooling Curves – Student Laboratory Kit, AP6886

Rating:

It seems counterintuitive—when freezing weather is predicted, orange growers spray the trees with water to prevent the fruit from freezing! The water actually releases heat when it solidifies. The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the solid–liquid phase changes for an unknown organic solid and determine the energy changes that take place when a solid melts or a liquid freezes.
