Question 1

A student investigated the temperature change when zinc powder is added to copper(II) sulfate solution. They used the apparatus shown below.

Experimental setup for determining the temperature change during a displacement reaction.

The maximum temperature rise obtained by the student was much lower than the theoretical value.

Explain how the student could improve the apparatus to obtain a temperature rise closer to the theoretical value.
