Determining the Heat of Solution of Salts
Procedure 01
This week, you will design your own procedure, based on last week's work.

Your goal is to determine the heat of solution for two salts, one that could be used as a chemical hot pack and one that could be used as a chemical cold pack. Chose your samples from those listed in the lab manual and calculate the mass needed to observe a temperature change of 2.5 to 3°C.
