Aim:To discover what factors affect the rate of diffusion of potassium permanganate crystals in water. Statement:What will happen? How will room temperate solutions or heated solutions increase the rate of diffusion of the potassium crystals?Hypothesis:Heat will speed up the process of diffusion because heat will give out energy that will be able to speed up the process of spreading the potassium molecules.

Isolation and Purification of Lyngbya majuscula on Nutrient-enriched Agar Plates A Special Problem Isolation and Purification of Lyngbya majuscula on Nutrient-enriched Agar Plates ABSTRACT Lyngbya majuscula samples were obtained from the Phycology Laboratory stock culture of the UPV Institute of Aquaculture. Five (5) mm fragments of these were inoculated into agar plates that used 1% agar concentration enriched with varying concentrations (1.0%‚ 1.5%‚ and 2.0%) of Hughes‚ et

ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was measured using two tests namely: the glass tube test and the agar-water test. The set-up of the glass tube test used two cotton balls of the same size. One cotton ball is moistened with hydrochloric acid (HCl) and the other one is moistened with ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH). The two cotton balls were inserted in both ends of the glass tube. NH4OH which has a lighter molecular weight (35.0459 g/mole) diffused with a faster rate (dave=20

Starch Diffusion in a Caterpillar’s Digestive Tract The object of this particular experiment is to gain knowledge on diffusion across a plasma membrane‚ which is selectively permeable. Diffusion is the movement of a substance from a region of high concentration to lower concentration. Experiment 2 was performed to see how the substance’s‚ starch‚ and diffusion process across a plasma membrane is affected by amylase. We prepared a simulated digestive tract of a caterpillar‚ as the plasma membrane

New product Adoption and Diffusion The marketer has to understand this consumer adoption process to build an effective marketing strategy. The adoption process is the set of successive decision an individual makes before accepting an innovation. Diffusion of a new product is the process is the process by which an innovation is communicated in a social system over a period of time. Adopters of new product usually move through the following. 1. Awareness Buyers become aware of the product

permeable membrane through a process of diffusion. The movement of a solute through this membrane is called dialysis . Diffusion is a form of passive transport. It is the movement of molecules from areas of higher concentration to those of lower concentration‚ until there is an even concentration. This movement is random because it is a result of kinetic energy. Diffusion is a slow process‚ but there are many factors that will affect it’s rate. The rate of diffusion will vary depending on the size of

the aim and background information 2.1. Diffusion is the spontaneous kinetic movement by which molecules move from an area of a high concentration to an area of low concentration. Diffusion continues until it reaches equilibrium. Osmosis is similar to Diffusion but it’s the process in which water moves across a semi-permeable membrane and goes to the higher concentration of solute.1 2.2. Important factors to Osmosis and Diffusion include Temperature‚ Concentration and Surface area

solutes move via passive diffusion through the plasma membrane. Diffusion is a process where molecules move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. How quickly diffusion occurs is dependent on several factors‚ such as temperature‚ particle size‚ and the concentration difference on either side of the membrane. Testing the hypothesis relating to the effect of molecular weight to the diffusion rate‚ agar plate set-up was used to observe the diffusion of different substances
