Calorimetry is the measurement of heat flow. In our lab the Calorimetry measures the amount of heat flow needed to increase or decrease the temperature of the cold or hot packs. A Calorimeter coffee cup is used because allows for constant pressure while also measuring the change of heat (∆H) as the salt dissolves inside the cup. Our team has been given four salts by the Ache Away! Company to see which ones would work for their hot or cold packs. Our purpose is to determine which salt is best suited for the production of cold packs and hot packs. We will do this by identifying which salts will increase or decrease the temperature of the packs. In addition we also need to know the unit cost of production per cold pack and hot pack to figure out which is the cheapest to
