GCSE Chemistry Coursework
Planning
a. I intend to investigate the factors, which affect the energy released by measuring the temperature change of water by the burning of different alcohols. For example, does the type of alcohol make a difference?
b. The input variables I have identified are type of alcohol, size of wick, distance of wick to bas of calorimeter, amount of soot on calorimeter, amount of water in calorimeter.
c. I will use temperature as my outcome variable by measuring the temperature at set time intervals
