    Thermodynamic Investigation of the Joule-Thompson Effect and Coefficient Determination for Helium and Carbon Dioxide Niki Spadaro‚ Megan Cheney‚ and Jake Lambeth University of North Florida‚ CHM4410C Fall 2010 The Joule-Thomson coefficient explains the behavior of any real gas when changes in intensive properties‚ such as temperature and pressure‚ occur. The coefficients for helium and carbon dioxide were determined using a Joule-Thomson apparatus that created constant enthalpy within the

    DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS: WHAT’S TO EXPECT? Diffusion and osmosis are very important in biological process. Diffusion is the movement of molecules or ions from a region of their high concentration to a region of their low concentration. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules across a semipermeable membrane. To gain a better understanding of diffusion and osmosis‚ we examine multiple experiments to show diffusion and osmosis in animal cell‚ plant cell and synthetic cell. In our first experiment

    Abstract The objective of this experiment was to test the effect of a specialized type of diffusion called osmosis‚ “which involves in selective transport of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane” (Lab Manual 2nd edition). It was hypothesized that osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The more abundant the solute is in solvent‚ the higher the rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent

    Osmosis Lab Research Question: In this lab‚ our goal was to look at the effects of different sucrose concentrations on osmosis in potatoes. Our research question was “How do the sugar levels affect the rate of osmosis in potatoes?”. Background Information: Solutions consist of solutes dissolved in a solvent. In all living organisms there are many different types of solutes including salts and sugars. The major solvent is water. There are different concentrations of solutes in various regions

    9/17/2013‚ Lois Andersen & Claire Ma “The Power of Osmosis” The purpose of the lab was to discover‚ through osmosis‚ the concentration of sugar water in a potato. First‚ potatoes were cut into strips about 3 centimetres in length and six strips were individually massed. Next‚ the six strips were placed in 6 different Dixie cups‚ labelled A‚ B‚ Q‚ X‚ Y‚ and Z. Each of the Dixie cups were then filled just enough to cover the potato strips‚ with substances that matched the letters of the cups
