Effect Of Temperature On Agar Jelly
17th, October 2010 Margarita

SA: VOL RATIO AND AGAR BLOCKS

Conclusion: For this experiment the agar jelly had to be cut in to five different block sizes, after that has been done we had to add all five blocks in to the test tube with the acid and time to see how long it would take for the colour to change from a pinky purple to clear. From this experiment I learnt that the bigger the size of the jelly is the more time its going to take for the colour change to take place, the colour change represents the rate of diffusion, the smaller the block of jelly is the less time its going to take for the colour change to take place which means the rate of diffusion

    Surface area is known to be beneficial to keeping organisms alive it allows huge organs such as the intestines to fit in a small area by being coiled and packed together tightly. This experiment looked if the surface area to volume ratio affected the speed of a chemical reaction. For this experiment, a film container was filled one-half full with water. Then an Alka-Seltzer tablet was added, quickly covered with a cap and was observed until the film cap popped off. The time was then immediately recorded and the procedure was the repeated three times each with whole and crushed Alka-Seltzer tablets. Then results from three fellow classmates' experiments would be recorded and added to our own results. The hypothesis was that more surface area exposed and smaller volume would result in a faster chemical reaction of the material. Since the Alka-Seltzer tablet would be less exposed and have a larger volume as a whole, the crushed tablet was thought to have a faster chemical reaction due to its small volume and larger exposure. The hypothesis was supported. The whole Alka-Seltzer tablet had an average of 7.80 seconds from twelve trials, while the crushed tablet had an average of only 3.56 seconds from twelve trials. However, errors may have occurred due to the fact the tablets and film caps weren't put in at synchronized times. The water levels in the film containers were also not measured accurately because they were…

    2. Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to help give visual understanding of diffusion which is a solution of high concentration spontaneously (no energy required) moving to an area of low concentration. Also taking a look at osmosis, which is the movement of chemicals across the cell membrane. Osmosis requires some type of energy to be put in for this to happen. After these experiments we should have a better idea and visualization of how chemicals transfer across the cell membrane.…

    Facilitated diffusion depends on passive transport. Molecules cross cell membrane by diffusion. A type of diffusion is osmosis. If no energy is input into the system during diffusion, the molecules will reach a state of equilibrium. The purpose of this experiment was to study why the death occurred among those who drank salt water.…

    There are many factors that affect the rate of reaction of bromelain on jello, these include pH, temperature and substrate concentration. In this demonstration, we were able to assess the effect of substrate concentration of pineapple (Containing bromelain) on jello. Our results showed that the relationship between rate of reaction and the change in mass of the jello is proportional. This can be seen that the higher the change in mass of jello, it would demonstrate a higher reaction rate, as the greater the change in mass of jello, this displays that the more mass of jello is decayed within the certain amount of timeframe (20 minutes) and thus, the more that decays, in the certain time period, the higher the rate of reaction there is. From…
