Diffusion and Osmosis lab Results: Figure 1a-rate of weight change in 15 min intervals of each concentration. The first tube showed very little weight change. However all other tubes show a greater change the concentration could be the factor that determines the permeability of the sucrose. The sucrose molecules are too large to pass through. Figure 1b- sucrose concentration determines the weight change. In this case based on our results as concentration increases the percent weight change

Activity 1: Simple diffusion Introduction: Simple diffusion is the net movement of substances from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration so its overall net movement is along the concentration gradient‚ simple diffusion does not require energy therefore it is ’passive’‚ substances are diffused across the membrane between the phospholipids. Materials and methods: * 20 mwco dialysis membrane * 50 mwco dialysis membrane * 100 mwco dialysis membrane * 200 mwco

Simple Diffusion Activity 1: Simulating Simple diffusion 1.What is the molecular weight of Na+? 22.9 2. What is the molecular weight of Cl-? 35.45 3. Which MWCO dialysis membranes allowed both of these ions through? 50‚ 100‚ and 200 4. Which materials diffused from the left beaker to the right beaker? Urea‚ NaCl and glucose diffused 5. Which did not? Why? Albumin‚ because the molecular weight exceeded the highest MWCO membrane‚ thus being to large to pass through

Biology Lab #1: Chemical Diffusion Purpose To discover how the size of a cell affects the diffusion of chemicals throughout the cell. Hypothesis I predict that as the cell size increases the diffusion depth and the diffusion rate will decrease. Equipment • Eye protection • 250 mL beaker • Timing device • Scoopula • Ruler • Scalpel • Sodium hydroxide solution • 3 different sized cubes of phenolphthalein agar • Paper towels Purpose

Lab # 2 Diffusion & Osmosis Introduction Kinetic energy‚ a root of energy stored in cells‚ causes molecules to hit into each other and move in new directions. Diffusion is the result of this contact. Diffusion is the random movement of molecules to an area of lower concentration from an area of higher concentration. Osmosis is a type of diffusion. This is the diffusion of water through a selectively permeable membrane from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower water

The purpose of this lab was to observe the rate of osmosis and diffusion‚ as well as the effect of molecular size of the particles on this rate. Part I of the lab was a demonstration of osmosis and diffusion‚ that dealt with raisins in different liquid environments‚ each with a different concentration of sugar. Part IV of the lab was using the same idea as the demonstration‚ by putting objects in different concentrations of a substance; in this case elodea leaves in salt water. In both cases‚ the

The effect of size on the effectiveness of diffusion Aim: To use agar blocks infused with 0.1 Molar sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and phenolphthalein to investigate the relationship between shape and surface area: volume ratio on the effectiveness of diffusion. Hypothesis: That for a cube of agar‚ the time taken for complete colourisation due to diffusion of HCl is directly proportional to the cubes volume. Materials: |A block of agar (10cm x 5cm x 3cm) with 0.1M NaOH and |1x 250mL

Introduction: Diffusion and osmosis are passive processes of transport. Passive transport involves no disbursement of energy by the cell. Diffusion movement is from high concentration to low concentration‚ which the driving force for this type of movement is kinetic energy particles themselves. Which crystal (Methylene blue‚ solid or Potassium Permanganate KMnO4-purple) will move further than the other due to the driving force (kinetic energy)? My prediction is that Potassium Permanganate KMnO4-
Premium Diffusion Molecular diffusion Osmosis
Diffusion is the molecular net movement from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. For instance‚ when a person is smoking‚ the smoke diffuses into the air. The molecules in the smoke‚ released from the cigarette‚ travel through the air. Here is how it occurs. When molecules are close enough‚ they collide with each other‚ their kinetic energy changes. Due to the direct relationship between diffusion and molecular kinetic energy‚ the molecules move away from the point of the collision as

Where as the active transport requires energy from the molecule to be moved. oFacilitated diffusion can only move in one direction from high concentration to low concentration‚ which is with the gradient. Where the active transport can move from both low concentrations to high concentrations‚ therefore it can move against the gradient where as the facilitated diffusion can not. The process of active transportation is when a molecule work together with the active side of a protein
