substances move down their concentration gradient‚ hence no energy is required. Passive transports can happen through three different channels‚ namely 1. lipid bilayer 2. pore protein 3. carrier protein SIMPLE DIFFUSION What is diffusion? Diffusion is the movement of particles from a high density region to a low density region. No energy is needed and no membrane involves in diffusion. The Dynamic Equilibrium Diffusion will continue until the concentration in all region is the

The concentration of 1-kestose isomer increased steadily with time from 0 - 80 min. During this time‚ sucrose was significantly influencing the rate of 1-kestose formation and hence the optimum concentration of the 1-kestose isomer was observed at 80 min. After 80 min‚ the 1-kestose concentration gradually decreased. This was because the invertase active sites had become saturated with sucrose (substrate) or sucrose had been used up in the reaction. Therefore‚ there was a gradual decrease observed

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 of an organism‚ including differences

Investigate osmosis between potato tissue and sugar solutions. Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato core of a given size 10mm Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solutions molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially permeable
Premium Concentration Osmosis Semipermeable membrane
using diffusion and osmosis you are trying to separate different solute concentrations on either side of the membrane. Only a solute’s relative concentration‚ or water potential‚ affects the rate of osmosis. The higher the concentration of solutes‚ the faster water will flow through the membrane to equalize the concentration. The way we describe the movement from higher to lower concentration or lower to higher concentration is called hypotonic solution and hypertonic solution. Hypothesis:

the random movement of its molecules results in a multitude of collisions. These collisions‚ in turn‚ lead to a dispersion of the molecules. The overall movement of the molecules will be from an area of high concentration‚ where there will be more collisions‚ to areas of low concentration‚ where the number of collisions will be much less. This process of dispersion will continue until there is no net gain or loss of molecules in an area. The process by which this equilibrium occurs is called diffusion

flexible‚ and Core A was not flexible and stiff. Core A was the most non-adjustable due to it being hypertonic which means that the total concentration of all the dissolved solute particles is greater than the other solution. Core B was isotonic meaning that it had an equal balance throughout. When two environments are isotonic it means that the total molar concentration of dissolved solutes is the same in both of them (equal). When cells are in an isotonic solution‚ movement of water out of the cell is

UNITS OF CONCENTRATION There are a number of different ways of expressing solute concentration that are commonly used. Some of these are listed below. Molarity‚ M = moles solute/liter of solution Normality‚ N = equivalents of solute/liter of solution Weight %‚ Wt % = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 100% Parts per million‚ ppm = (mass of solute/mass of solution) x 106 Mass per volume‚ mg/L = mass of solute/liter of solution molality‚ m = moles of solute/mass of solvent mole fraction‚ χ = moles
