Question 23

A student wants to compare the heat energy changes that occur when two different metals, zinc and iron, react with copper(II) sulfate solution.

The student is provided with:

  • zinc powder
  • iron powder
  • copper(II) sulfate solution of concentration 0.50 mol dm-3
  • standard laboratory apparatus

Devise a plan to compare the temperature changes produced when these two metals are reacted individually with the copper(II) sulfate solution.
