Exercise June ‘04 The Uptake of Glucose in Yeast Cells Glucose is absorbed across the cell surface membrane (plasma membrane) of most cells. A convenient way to investigate this is to use a solution of glucose and a suspension of yeast cells. The amount of glucose taken up from the glucose solution by yeast cells in a fixed length of time can be measured. At the end of the fixed length of time‚ further uptake of glucose is prevented by transferring the yeast suspension to a boiling water bath

number of osmoles of solute per liter in solution. So‚ what does osmolality depend on? It mostly depends on number of particles in chemical solution but not the identity of molecules and ions. Since we were dealing with elodea and NaCl (which is M) and were trying to figure out which molarity would cause us to get isotonic solution. Based on the experiments that we before trying to figure out the isotonic solution‚ we were doing hypotonic and hypertonic solutions‚ so we had a slight idea what to do and

1. Determining the concentration of KMnO4 from the solution created by the stockroom. 16H+ + 2MnO4- (aq) + 5C2O42- (aq) → 2Mn2+ (aq) + 10CO2 (g) + 8H2O (l) Volume of potassium manganate (KMnO4) = 32.5 mL Mass of Sodium Oxalate (NaC2O4): 0.104 [KMnO4] Calculation: = (0.104g of NaC2O4)(1 mol NaC2O4 /134.0g)(2 mol KMnO4 / 5 mol NaC2O4)(1/32.5 mL)(1000 mL /1L) = 0.00955 M KMnO4 2. Using the standardized concentration of KMnO4 calculated above to find the mass percentage of the oxalate ion Equation:

It will be shown now in this paper that the size of the molecules of the solute in an undissociated dilute solution can be found from the viscosity of the solution and of the pure solvent‚ and from the rate of diffusion of the solute into the solvent‚ if the volume of a molecule of the solute is large 36 ’ 37 compared with the volume of a molecule of the solvent.

SOS in DHS: A Problem of Motivation About 18 months ago‚ Jess Johnson was appointed to direct a newly authorized and funded unit in the state’s Department of Human Services (DHS). Shortly thereafter‚ she interviewed and hired six new employees to staff the unit. The name of the unit is Service Outreach for Seniors (SOS). Its purpose is to coordinate services for the vulnerable elderly. This is Jess’s first supervisory position. Susan Jones and Bob Martin were two of the new employees hired by Jess

DETERMINATION OF THE WATER POTENTIAL OF POTATO TUBER CELLS. Method. Five sucrose solutions with varying molarity and one control containing distilled water were prepared and poured into test tubes. The potato discs were dried‚ weighed and added to the test tubes. The discs were then weighed again after a period of 24 hours. The percentage change in mass was then calculated. Apparatus.  Specimen tubes with stoppers x6  1cm3 diameter cork borer  razor

Abstract - Today’s world poses an era where technology is both comfort and need. In the enjoyment of these benefits‚ energy has been harnessed mostly from non-renewable energy resources. While energy is surging in demand‚ by-products included pollution and other harmful effects. People need to shift their views to the alternative energy resources such as ethanol‚ alcohol extracted from fruits. Food consumption should never be sacrificed‚ therefore‚ using fruit wastes is wiser. Santol is locally abundant
