EXPERIMENT # 2BOYLES LAW
OBJECTIVE:
To verify that when the volume of an ideal gas (Air) is changed at
constant temperature, the product of its pressure and volume
remains constant (Boyles Law)
APPARATUS:
Boyles Law apparatus, water having pressure of around 4 bars.
BOYLES LAW APPARATUS:
Boyles Law apparatus consists of a glass cylinder of 50 cm length
and 5 cm diameter. The glass cylinder is graduated having 10
graduations; the fractional parts , 1/3, , 2/3, & of the total,
volume are also marked. The cylinder is enclosed in a transparent
plastic tube for protection. A safety valve is also installed that
responds when an air pressure approx. 4.5 bars are reached.
Pressure associated to the volume of air in cylinder is indicated by a
manometer connected to the apparatus. The manometer ranges
from 0 to 4 bars. Tap water to compress/expand the enclosed
volume of air is introduced into/Drained from the cylinder as
required by means of two taps having pressure tubing of 1.5 meter
length.
PROCEDURE:
The volume of air under investigation is contained in a glass cylinder
which is closed at the top. To remove all the air from supply tube,
the tube must be completely filled with water. Water is introduced

EXPERIMENT # 5DILATOMETER
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the linear expansion of brass, iron, copper, aluminium,
duran glass and quartz glass as a function of temperature (five
different temperatures ranging between 20C and 70C) using a
dilatometer. Calculate the linear expansion coefficients.
ASSEMBLY :
Set up the experiment as shown in following Figure.
PROCEDURE:
Clamp the first tube over its whole length (600 mm) in the
dilatometer and connect it to the circulating pump of the thermostat
via rubber tubing. Keep the tubing as far as possible away from the
dilatometer in order not to heat up the frame of the dilatometer. For
the same reason, avoid long periods of readjustment of the
temperature controlled bath and set the temperature only with the
accuracy of the thermostatic control. After the initial temperature
(approximately 20C) has been reached, set the meter to 0, and
then raise the temperature in four steps, each of 10C to 15C.
Record the respective changes in length and the corresponding
temperatures.
Repeat this measurement series with each of the remaining four
materials.

EXPERIMENT # 6THERMAL EXPANSION
OBJECTIVE:
To determine the thermal expansion of water as a function of
temperature (five different temperatures ranging between 20C
and 70C.), using the pycnometer
PROCEDURE:
The volume of the pycnometer is determined and the scale
calibrated by weighing it empty and then filled with destilled water.
The pycnometer, filled with the liquid to be measured, is brought to
temperature in the water bath (thermostat). The change in volume
is read from the scale on the tube built into its stopper.
Measure the water volume at five different temperatures between
20C and 70C. In a fluid, a temperature increase intensifies the
thermal movement of the particles and hence increases the volume.

EXPERIMENT # 7MOLAR MASS OF LIQUID
OBJECTIVE:
Determine the molar masses of liquid. Discuss the results in terms
of the real and ideal behavior of vapors.
Procedure:
Switch on the heating apparatus and adjust the power regulator so
that the water is brought to gentle boiling. When the water has
reached a constant temperature, perform the measurements as
follows: Draw a small quantity of the liquid to be investigated (e.g.
approx. 0.12 ml of methanol or approx. 0.3 ml of diethyl ether) into
the injection syringe without bubbles. Clean the cannula externally
with a paper towel and determine the total weight of the syringe
with cannula and substance to an accuracy of 1 mg. Record the
exact volume of air contained in the gas syringe. Now rapidly inject
the substance through the rubber cap. Ensure that the whole test
substance has been injected into the cylinder of the gas syringe and
nothing has remained in the capillary tube. Let the injection syringe
stuck in the rubber cap until the vapour volume no longer changes.
Ensure that pressure equilibrium between the syringe and the
atmosphere has been reached by turning the cylinder of the glass
syringe slightly, then read off the volume of the vaporized liquid.
Reweigh the empty syringe and calculate the mass of the
substance. Perform three measurements for each of the two liquids
in this manner. After each measurement, remove the rubber cap

EXPERIMENT # 8MOLAR MASS OF GAS
OBJECTIVE:
Determine the molar masses of gases. Discuss the results in terms
of the real and ideal behavior of gases.
PROCEDURE:
Thoroughly clean and dry the syringe and the glass bulb and lightly
grease the three-way stopcock (do not grease the syringe plunger!).
Assemble the apparatus as shown in Fig. 1. Make sure that the
plunger stop is positioned to prevent the plunger from being fully
removed from the syringe barrel whilst still allowing the syringe to
be filled to its maximum volume of 100 ml. In the following, S1 is the
three-way stopcock on the gas syringe, S2 is the Teflon stopcock
between S1 and the glass bulb and S3 is the Teflon stopcock
between the glass bulb and the pump
To determine the mass of the glass bulb, close S2, open S3 and
evacuate the glass bulb by pumping for 10 minutes, close S3,
disconnect the bulb from the vacuum line and weigh it. Following
this, reconnect the bulb to the vacuum line and open S2 and S3.
Turn S1 to connect both the syringe and the bulb to the gas bottle
and evacuate the entire vacuum line for a further 5-10 minutes.
Close S2 and S3 and carefully open the needle valve regulator on
the gas bottle to fill the syringe with gas. Record the volume of gas
introduced into the syringe (between 95 and 100 ml) to the nearest
0.5 ml. Fill the bulb with gas by turning S1 through 180 and slowly
-
8/6/2019 Thermo Manual

open S2. After closing S2, remove the bulb from the vacuum line
and re-weigh it. Calculate the mass of the gas in the bulb and record
it together with the ambient pressure and temperature. Replace the
bulb and repeat the procedure twice before measuring the next gas.

EXPERIMENT # 9CRITICAL POINT OF A SUBSTANCE
OBJECTIVE:
Determine the critical point of given gas.
PROCEDURE :
The hoses in the water circulating system between the temperature-
controlled bath and the temperature control jacket of the critical
point apparatus must be secured with hose clips. The flow of water
to the temperature control jacket of the device on the lower hose
connection tube (hose olive) is adjusted with a pinchcock in such a
manner that just as much water can enter the device as can flow
out of the upper hose connection tube. If this adjustment is not
made, it is possible that water will flow out of the temperature
control jackets lid. During the measurement of an isotherm perform
a reading of the pressure every 0.1 ml of volume difference.

ENTHALPY OF VAPORIZATION OF PURE LIQUIDOBJECTIVE:
Determine the enthalpy of vaporization of given pure liquid.
PROCEDURE :
Place the clean and dry evaporation vessel in an Erlenmeyer flask
and fill it through the straight inlet tube with 15 ml of the liquid to
be evaporated using a syringe with a cannula. Following this, attach
a 5 cm length of rubber tubing to the air inlet tube and connect it to
the air control valve. Only then, close off the right-angled air outlet
tube with a rubber cap to prevent loss of substance due to
vaporization. Subsequent to this, determine the mass of the
evaporation vessel, which has been thus prepared (weighing
accuracy: 0.0001 g). The Erlenmeyer flask serves merely as a
support for the evaporation vessel. Fill the calorimeter with 900 g of
distilled water which is at room temperature (weighing accuracy =
0.1 g). Put the oval magnetic stirrer bar into the calorimeter and
switch the magnetic stirrer on (Caution: Do not mistakenly switch on
the heating unit!). Insert the heating coil, the temperature probe
and the evaporation vessel into the lid of the calorimeter and fix
them in position. Take off the rubber cap and connect the
evaporation vessel to the filter pump via the safety bottle.
Wait until a temperature equilibrium has been reached
(approximately 10 min). Ensure that the equilibrium temperature
has been reached in the calorimeter, i.e. the temperature remains
constant or shows only a slight drift, then turn on the water jet
-
8/6/2019 Thermo Manual

pump and start the vaporization process by carefully opening the air
control valve on the air inlet. Avoid vigorous sputtering and delayed
boiling. When the temperature of the water has decreased by
approx. 1C, close the air control valve and shut off the water jet
pump (let air into the safety bottle!). Immediately remove the
vacuum tubing from the air outlet tube of the evaporation vessel
and close this outlet tube with the rubber cap. Continue to measure
and record the temperature of the system until a new equilibrium
has Now, perform electrical calibration to determine the total heat
capacity of the calorimeter. To do this, supply 10 V AC to the work
and power meter for the electric heating. Put the free ends of the
heating coil connection cables into the output jacks. The system is
now continuously heated and the supplied quantity of energy is
measured. When the work and power meter shows approximately
4000 Ws, switch off the heating and read off the exact quantity of
electrical energy that has been supplied. Continue to measure for
another three minutes been reached or until the alteration only
occurs slowly and linearly.
Subsequently remove the closed evaporation vessel, carefully dry it,
then weigh it in the Erlenmeyer flask which was previously used.
From the two weighings, i.e. before and after vaporization, the
quantity of vaporized substance can be calculated. Always
thoroughly clean and dry the evaporation vessel before performing
a new measurement.

ENTHALPY OF MIXING OF MIXTURE
OBJECTIVE:
Determine the enthalpy of mixing of a binary mixture.
PROCEDURE :
For the first measurement, fill 432 g water into the calorimeter.
Insert the oval magnetic stirrer bar in the calorimeter and switch the
magnetic stirrer on (Caution: Do not switch on the heating unit by
mistake!). Insert the heating coil and the temperature probe into the
lid of the calorimeter and fix them in position. Weigh 154 g of
acetone in a 250 ml Erlenmeyer flask. Cut a rubber stopper with
hole lengthwise, put the second temperature probe through the hole
and close the Erlenmeyer flask before hanging it into the
temperature-controlled bath. Adjust the immersion thermostat to
the temperature of the water in the calorimeter and wait until the
temperature difference between the acetone in the bath and the
calorimeter does not exceed 0.02 K. Wait a few minutes, then pour
the acetone into the water in the calorimeter. After new
temperature equilibrium has been reached, perform electrical
calibration for the determination of the total heat capacity of the
calorimeter. To do this, supply 10 V AC to the work and power meter
for the electric heating. Put the free ends of the heating coil
connection cables into the output jacks. The system is now
continuously heated and the supplied quantity of energy is
measured. When the temperature increase in the calorimeter
