| 2012 | | Toby Rheinberger Lab Partner: Jeremy Saba | [The Effect of surface area to volume ratio and solute concentration on osmosis.] | The aim of this experiment was to test the effect of surface area on osmosis and the effect of solute concentration on osmosis. To test this aim to hypotheses were devised. 1) If potato pieces are immersed in various salt solutions‚ then the pieces with the greatest surface area to volume ratio will experience the greatest weight change‚ because more

how different concentrations of acids and bases in a solution affect its pH level. When acids and bases are combined in a solution‚ they neutralize each other. This means that depending on the concentration of both acids and bases in a solution‚ the pH will vary. A neutral pH level is 7; anything below that level is known as an acidic solution‚ while anything above is known as a basic solution. To find out the pH‚ the solutions will be diluted and tested with different concentrations. Experimental

This relationship is _____________________ proportional. Initially‚ there is 275mL 0.125M stock solution of a substance. -Determine the amount of moles of solute present. -What is the concentration after a dilution when the final volume is 2.50L.

water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration of water molecules (high water potential) to an area of a low concentration of water molecules (low water potential). From previous knowledge I know when a plant cell is put into a solution with the same concentration as the cell contents‚ this is referred to as isotonic‚ some water molecules move in and out. Due to no concentration gradient‚ no net flow. When a plant cell is placed in less concentrated solution

Also‚ it will cause the blood vessels to constrict. (LaFave‚ 2003) These effects will work together to increase an animals heart rate. Under normal circumstances‚ the heart rate will increase as more caffeine is added. At some point the high concentration of caffeine will cause the heart to stop functioning. The effect of one outside substance can impair the effects of other substances. In this experiment we will intoxicate an organism. As a result‚ the nervous system will have difficulty responding

Your answer: Increasing the number of membrane carriers and the concentration. 2. Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? Your answer: Because Urea was too big to pass through the 20 MWCO membrane 3. Describe the results of the

results more accurate. Hypothesis- Their will be a positive correlation between the concentration of caffeine given to the Daphnia and its heart rate. My reason behind this hypothesis is based on the fact that caffeine affects the heart rate of humans‚ as it is a stimulant. From this‚ I can assume that it also affects the heart rate of Daphnia and that the rise in heart rate should reflect the concentration of caffeine. Many scientific studies within the last few years have proven this‚ for

Solvent through Osmosis or Diffusion Due to Different Concentration Gradients Passing Through a Semi-permeable Membrane between Cell and Cells Environment Bio 101 Objective: The objective is to simulate passive transport: diffusion of solutes and osmosis of water through a semipermeable membrane (dialysis tubing). The experiment will show how molecules in solution move from areas of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration in the attempt to reach homeostasis in different circumstances

presented above‚ there are not clear conclusions that can be drawn. In Table 4‚ there is information regarding the effects of varying the concentration of a substrate‚ in this case the pea extract. To view the graphical representation‚ which more clearly displays the relationship‚ view Figure 2. The rate at which the reaction occurred for the 100% concentration is 1.45 mg/dL per minute. For the 50%‚ the rate was 3.05 mg/dL per minute‚ and for the 25%‚ the rate was 2.76 mg/dL per minute. As seen‚ the
