2 Evaporation and Intermolecular Forces. Evaporation is an endothermic process, and the magnitude of the temperature decrease during evaporation is an indication of the strength of the intermolecular forces present. A small drop in temperature i.e. slow rate of evaporation is an indication of strong intermolecular forces. This experiment will compare the temperature changes for propan-1-ol (mol. wt = 60 ) and propanone (mol. wt. = 58) and the students can determine which of the compounds has the greater intermolecular forces. Apparatus 1. CBL 2 datalogger with DataMate Program 2. TI-83 Graphing Calculator 3. Two temperature sensors 4. One beaker of propan-1-ol and one of propanone. 5. Filter paper and small elastic bands. 6. Masking tape. Setting up the calculator and datalogger Place the Calculator in the cradle. Place the CBL 2 datalogger on the underside of the cradle. Place the Temperature Sensors in channel 1 and channel 2 of the CBL 2. Connect the Calculator to the CBL 2 using the small connection lead. Make sure the lead is pressed fully home. (The connection ports are at the bottom of the Calculator and Lab Pro). If the sensor is connected before the Calculator is turned on, it will be automatically detected. 2

3 Selecting the Sensor and the type of data collection The Sensor Menu Data Collection Mode Menu Turn on the Calculator. Press APPS (blue key). From the menu that appears select the Datamate program by pressing the appropriate number. Press CLEAR (Removes any data present from previous experiments) Channel 1 and 2 should show that the Temperature Sensors are attached. If the Temperature Sensors are not detected in channels 1 and 2 then they must be selected from the sensor menu. Press 1 Setup Press ENTER at channel 1 and select the Sensor from the list Use the down arrow to move to channel 2 Press ENTER at channel 2 and select the Sensor from the list You must now decide on the type of data collection you require Press 1 Setup Scroll down using the arrow key to select Mode from the menu Press ENTER. Press 2 Time graph Press 2 Change time settings Time between samples in seconds appears. Type in 3 and press ENTER Enter number of samples appears. Type in 45 and press ENTER Press 1 (OK) once 3

4 Press 1 (OK) again CBL 2 is now ready to take temperature readings with both Sensors, one every 3 seconds. Starting the experiment and collecting the data Students should work in pairs, one to remove the probes from the beakers and attach them to the bench and the other to operate the calculator. Place some propan-1-ol in one beaker and propanone in another. Place a small cylinder of filter paper around the tip of the Temperature Sensors and secure each with a small rubber band..place one Temperature Sensor in each solution and support them in order to prevent the beakers tipping over. Allow the filter paper to soak up the solutions for 30 seconds Press 2 to start the Datalogging Allow the first 3 readings to be taken and plotted. Simultaneously remove both probes from their solutions Secure each Sensor to the edge of the bench with tape so that the filter paper is clear of the surface Readings taken every 3 seconds are being logged and plotted on a graph of Temperature against Time for each liquid. Analysing Data When data collection has stopped two graphs are drawn. The lighter graph represents channel 1 and the darker graph represents channel 2.. As you move the cursor right or left, the time (X) and temperature (Y) values of each data point are displayed below the graph. 4

5 The Up and Down arrows allow you to alternate between graphs. Note the initial (t1) and final (t2) temperature values for each graph. Alternatively Press ENTER.. Press 1 to return to the Main Menu. Choose 4 Analyse on the Main Menu screen Choose 4 Statistics on the Analyse Options screen Press 1 to select channel 1 Select the Left Boundary by pressing ENTER Use the Arrow keys to move to the Right Boundary, Press ENTER. The Minimum and Maximum temperature values are displayed. Record these in the Table below. Repeat the procedure for channel 2 Rinse and dry the Temperature Sensors Dispose of the solutions as directed by your instructor. Data and Calculations propan-1-ol propanone 1.

6 Transferring Data from the Calculator to a Computer Connect the Calculator to the Computer using the grey Graph link cable. On the Computer Click on the icon for Graphical Analysis. Choose File and select Import from TI calculator Select Port From the window choose COM 1 Click O.K On the Calculator Turn off the Calculator by pressing 2 nd. and Off Turn the computer back on. Press 2 nd Link Press 4 to select Lists Select L1.by pressing ENTER. Press the down arrow and press ENTER. to select L2. Press the down arrow once more and press ENTER. to select L3. Move the cursor to the top and press the right Arrow to select Transmit Press 1 or ENTER. to Transmit data Your data should now appear on the Graphical Analysis screen. You can Analyse this data following the analysing instructions of LoggerPro found in the Computer version of these experiments. 6

7 Intermolecular Forces Evaporation is an endothermic process, and the magnitude of the temperature decrease during evaporation is an indication of the strength of the intermolecular forces present. A small drop in temperature i.e. slow rate of evaporation is an indication of strong intermolecular forces. This experiment will compare the temperature changes for propan-1-ol (mol. wt = 60 ) and propanone (mol. wt. = 58) and the students can determine which of the compounds has the greater intermolecular forces. Apparatus 1. LabPro data logger. 2. PC with Logger Pro software installed 3. Two temperature sensors 4. One beaker of propan-1-ol and one of propanone. 5. Filter paper and small elastic bands. 6. Masking tape. Setting up the Data logger and PC THE DATALOGGER Connect LabPro to the computer via the USB cable.you may need to slide the plastic window on the side of the data logger to access the port. Connect the Temperature Sensors to channel 1 and 2 on the LabPro Attach the power lead to LabPro and turn it on. THE COMPUTER Double click on the Logger Pro icon on the desktop. If there is no icon displayed the program is found by clicking Start followed by Programs, followed by Vernier Software and finally Logger Pro. The program should detect the two Temperature Sensors and the window below is displayed. 7

8 If the program does not detect the Sensors you are greeted with a welcome page. Follow the instructions to open the prepared experiments. Click on File, select Open. Double Click on Chemistry with Computers. Double Click on Exp. 09 Evaporation. Click on Stainless Steel Temp. The screen is divided into three main areas. Graph Window here data points are plotted as soon as they are recorded. Meter Window this shows the reading recorded by the current sensors. Table Window Entries are recorded here in columns.(similar to Spreadsheet) Click on the Setup Collection icon at the top of the screen Set the data collection for Real Time Collect Click on the Sampling tab Set the Experiment length for 120 seconds at a rate of one sample per second Click on O.K You are now ready to collect data. 8

9 Procedure for the Experiment and collecting the Data Students should work in pairs, one to remove the sensors from the beakers and attach them to the bench and the other to operate the computer. Place some propan-1-ol in one beaker and propanone in another. Place a small cylinder of filter paper around the tip of the Temperature Sensors and secure each with a small rubber band. Place one Temperature Sensor in each solution and support them in order to prevent the beakers tipping over. Allow the filter paper soak up the solutions for 30 seconds Click on Collect at the top of the screen After a few seconds remove both sensors from their solutions Secure each sensor to the edge of the bench with tape so that the filter paper is clear of the surface Readings taken every second are being logged and plotted on a graph of Temperature against Time for each liquid. Analysing the Data Click on the Graph Window where the Data points have been plotted Click on the Autoscale icon at the top of the screen Click on Analyse and choose Make Annotation Type Propan-1-ol and click O.K A text box appears.
