A quick little intro to how we measure the heat of reactions and calibrate a calorimeter. Most info on this podcast is put into practice in the question videos on youtube. The youtube channel you need to look at is 'www.youtube.com/mrjasongoudie'

Notes can be found on the edmodo group: code: 'v2buva'. Feel free to discuss the podcast and any other chemistry topics there with other students and teachers.

Three videos

Part 1: Basic heat of solution: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-M1um6APZUo

Part 2: Calibration of a calorimeter and heat of reaction calculation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GFRf_CbsYPI

Part 3: Combining thermochemical equations: http://youtu.be/xIkKAv-YKBU

Part 4: setting up a calorimeter: still to come.
