Glass is far inferior to paper, plastic and Styrofoam in terms of insulation. Thermal conductivity in terms of BTU/(feet - hour - degrees F) is 1.82 for glass, 0.09 for paper, 0.06 for Styrofoam. The conductivity of plastics varies depending on the materials: for polypropylene and polycarbonate, the thermal conductivity values are 0.69 and 0.35, respectively.
Styrofoam Cup Calorimetry Experiment Introduction. Calorimetry is a process of measuring the amount of heat involved in a chemical reaction or other process.In this experiment, I used thermometer to see if the chemicals is gaining or losing heat energy. Objectives.To find out the heat released or changed in a reaction.his process can be categorized as Exothermic reaction, because this releases energy during the process. Styrofoam Cup Calorimetry Experiment Data & Result: Initial temperature of HCl and NaOH Hydrocloric acid (HCl) Molarity Temperature Sodium Hydroxide Molarity Temperature 0.5 21 CÂ° 0.5 15.
