Osmosis Osmosis is a special example of diffusion. It is the diffusion of water through a partially permeable membrane from a more dilute solution to a more concentrated solution – down the water potential gradient) Note: diffusion and osmosis are both passive‚ i.e. energy from ATP is not used. A partially permeable membrane is a barrier that permits the passage of some substances but not others; it allows the passage of the solvent molecules but not some of the larger solute molecules.

incorporated Beer’s Law and is focused on determining the stress that various alcohols have on biological membranes. Using five solutions of differing alcohol concentration for each of the three alcohols; methanol‚ ethanol‚ and 1-propanol and a small slice of beet‚ the stirred solution was placed into a plastic cuvette and then into a spectrophotometer and the absorbance of alcohol solutions were determined in order to conclude which alcohol and concentration of alcohol had the greatest effect on biological

Beer Lambert Law experimentally. The various solutions used for this experiment are tap water mixed with food colouring‚ Introduction: The Beer Lambert Law shows the relation between absorbance of light of an object‚ the molar absorptivity‚ the concentration of the substance‚ and the distance the light travels. The Beer Lambert Law states that there is a linear relationship between the concentration of a solution and the absorbance of said solution. If there is a linear relation‚ the resulting

resulting solution was filtered through multiple layers of cheese cloth to filter out the liquid by eliminating any large pieces in the solution. The solution created was catechol. Five different solutions were prepared as blanks with each test tube containing 6.0mL of a different pH (pH 4‚ pH6‚ pH7‚ pH8‚ pH10) of phosphate buffer‚ 1.0mL of the enzyme and 1.0mL of water. Five more solutions were prepared in the same fashion except without the 1.0mL of water. These five experimental solutions were capped

increasing periods of time. - Method to test hypothesis: The hypothesis can be tested by first determining the amount of ascorbic acid needed to decolourize 3mL of DCPIP solution‚ and calculating the concentration of Vitamin C in the ascorbic acid. Next‚ determine the amount of fruit juice needed to decolourize 3mL of DCPIP solution‚ and calculating the concentration of Vitamin C in the fruit juice initially. Then‚ heat a few test tubes of fruit juice in a boiling water bath for different periods of

------------------------------------------------- Spectrophotometry has various uses in different fields of science. It can be used in obtaining the concentration and the identity of a solution. In order to test that‚ an experiment was made using the basic concepts of spectrophotometry. This experiment used the properties of light and how much of it is absorbed by the unknown solution. In relation to this method was the so called principle‚ the Beer-Lambert’s Law‚ which was used in getting the relationship of the absorbance and the
