[0 10 AAI 28 Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions Objective: To give students an understanding of the principles of exothermic and endothermic reactions. Learning Outcomes: Students will identify: * exothermic (heat given out) reactions ‘* endothermic (heat is taken in) reactions Part 1 - Decomposition of hydrogen peroxide Collect the following material * 2 pea-sized potato pieces © Thermometer © 5 ml HaOp (hydrogen peroxide) © 2 wooden splints © 5 ml H20 (water) © Matches © 2 test tubes © Timer (or clock) «Test tube rack © Permanent marker © 10ml graduated cylinder © Paper towel Procedure: 1. Label 2 test tubes A and B with a permanent marker and place in test tube rack. 2. Using the 10 ml graduated cylinder, measure 5 ml of HzO (water) and pour into test tube A. 3. Using the 10 ml graduated cylinder, measure 5 ml of Hz0> (hydrogen peroxide) and pour into test tube B. Place a thermometer into test tube A. Record test tube A’s starting temperature into Data Table 2. ‘Add one piece of potato to test tube A. One partner should record the temperature at 30 second intervals in Data Table 2 for 3 minutes. Another partner should carefully lower a glowing splint into test tube A right after adding the potato in, and record observations into Data Table 1. (Note: Glowing splint: light a splint with a match, make sure an orange glow is visible, then blow the flame out. Make sure the splint is glowing before lowering it into test tube.) 8. Record all observations for test tube A in Data Table 1. 9. Wipe the thermometer clean with a paper towel and place it into test tube B. 10, Record test tube B’s starting temperature into Data Table 2. 11. Add one piece of potato to test tube B. 12. One partner should record the temperature at 30 second intervals in Data Table 2 for 3 minutes. Another partner should carefully lower a glowing splint into test tube B right after adding the potato in, and record observations into Data Table 1. 13. Record all observations for test tube B in Data Table 1. 14. Clean up and return all materials (materials are non-hazardous, solids can be discarded in ‘the trash and liquids in the sink.)

Using a 10 ml graduated cylinder, measure 10 ml water and pour it into a test tube, 2. Place the test tube in the test tube rack. 3, Place a thermometer into the water and record the starting temperature in Data Table 3. 4. Quickly add all of the candy powder. The candy does not need to fully dissolve. 5, Record temperature change at 10 second intervals for 60 seconds, then at 30 second intervals until 180 seconds is reached in Data Table 3. 6.
