different substances through dialysis tubing. We used what we knew about diffusion to make predictions on what we thought the mass of the dialysis tubing to be after submerging them for 30 mins and we knew that diffuse occurs from highest concentration to lowest concentration. Since the dialysis tubings are filled with different substances than what they are being put into then they should all gain or lose mass. If the dialysis tubing is submerged in different substance than what is in the tubing then

when the concentration increase to 0.3M‚ the mass of the potato slices decreased by -3.26%. We can conclude we see that as we increased the sucrose concentration it was a decrease in the percent change. Introduction All cells have membranes that are selectively permeable. In other words‚ they allow certain things in and certain substances are not allowed to enter the inside of the cell. Osmosis is the process of water movement across the membranes from an area of high water concentration to an area

Errors that occurred during the affinity step that impacted the purity of our LDH was that we had to stop the column before we could get an absorbance rate of 0.1‚ which means that there was much of our purer LDH sample that we were unable to collect and use. Another thing to note is that our values for the affinity chromatography step were almost the same as the amount for the size exclusion

experiment was to test the effect of the concentration gradient on the diffusion rate. It was hypothesized that the greater the stronger the concentration gradient‚ the faster the rate of diffusion would be. To test this‚ dialysis tubes were submerged in different concentration fructose solutions. We weighed the tubes at specific time intervals to measure the rate of diffusion of water in each different solution. The results illustrated that increased concentration gradient increases the rate of diffusion

area of high concentration of sucrose solution to an area of lower concentration of sucrose solution‚ through a selectively permeable membrane. The water molecules move down a concentration gradient in osmosis. Two diagrams of osmosis are shown in figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 shows the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of highly concentrated sucrose solution to an area of lower concentrated sucrose solution. Figure 2 shows a concentration gradient‚ in

Osmosis is the movement of water from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration across a semi permeable membrane. An osmotic system is established when a semi-permeable membrane is placed between two solutions. In this biological systems context‚ osmosis is the exchange of water between the potato cell and the surrounding medium of varying sucrose concentrated solutions‚ with the plasma membrane being the semi- permeable membrane. Because water molecules have kinetic energy‚ they

November 2012 TITLE: The Reaction Rate of Catalase in Various Concentrations of Hydrogen Peroxide QUESTION: How long does the catalase take to float to the top of a cup filled with different amounts of hydrogen peroxide concentration? PREDICTION: A prediction that can be made for this experiment is that the higher the concentration‚ the faster time it takes the catalase to react with the solution. As the concentration increases from 1% to 100%‚ the average reaction rate of the catalase

larger concentration of water then the cell sap in the potato tissue. I can make this conclusion because the results show a big increase in weight of the potato piece. Meaning that water has moved from outside the potato into the potato due to Osmosis‚ proving that the distilled water had a higher concentration of water‚ as water moves from a high concentration to a low concentration. I can also see that the glucose solution of 0.8M has a much lower water concentration then the

This report presents the weights of 3 samples of water with various amounts of solute after the use of osmosis. Three different tests were performed‚ each with a beaker of water containing varying amounts of starch from 30% concentration (12.5 grams of water) to 15% concentration (9.5 grams of water)‚ and then 0% (10.5 grams of water). To start this experiment‚ we put water into a make-shift dialysis tube‚ a type of semi-permeable membrane tubing made from regenerated cellulose (Wikipedia). We then
