Question 1
A calorimeter is a device which can be used to determine the heat of reaction. The process of measuring the heat is known as calorimetry. Based on the above statement and from your further findings, answer the following questions:
a) Analyze the operational principle of a calorimeter in a proper sequence. Organize your answer in the form of a flow diagram :
b) Outline how does the operational principle of the calorimeter is related to the First Law of Thermodynamics.
Question 2
Electroplating is a process of passing through an electrical current through an electrolyte solution, which the intention to change the surface properties of an object; such as corrosion protection, abrasion/wear resistance and aesthetic qualities. Electoplating has been widely used in jewelry making, which can enhanced the aesthetic value and its wearability. Based on the electroplating process in jewelry making, answer the following questions:
a) Identify one (1) type of material which can be used for the jewelry electroplating.
b) Sketch the diagram of the electrolysis cell (based on the material selected in a). The sketch must be hand-drawn, without any copy and paste from any source.
c) Analyze all the reactions involve in the process (half cell reactions and overall cell reaction).
d) Identify the oxidizing agent and reducing agent. Provide the reason(s) for the identification.
e) Analyze the limitation or constraint of this process.
