Introduction: Because all molecules have kinetic energy and are constantly in motion cells go through a process called diffusion. Diffusion is the movement if molecules from an area of higher concentration to and area of lower concentration. This process with continue to occur until an equilibrium is reached. Osmosis is a different and unique kind of diffusion. Osmosis is the diffusion of water through a permeable membrane. The phrase “permeable membrane” means that the membrane will only allow specific

cultural diffusion‚ the limitation of spatial interaction‚ and space-time compression? Whilst reading “Globalization in a Bottle” and “The Tipping Point-- Three Rules of Epidemics” three key concepts of “Chapter One: Basic Concepts” become inherently apparent: cultural diffusion‚ the limitation of spatial interaction‚ and space-time compression. The two articles clearly depict these three theories‚ through their choice use of real world examples. In each of these articles‚ cultural diffusion is a

METHODOLOGY After formulating the hypothesis that the molecular weight affects the rate of diffusion‚ three different kinds of substances --potassium permanganate (KMNO4)‚ potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) and methylene blue (C16H18N3SCl)‚ were used to test the validity of the hypothesis. Potassium permanganate is an inorganic chemical compound which is in violet liquid form; potassium dichromate is an orange inorganic chemical reagent and methylene blue is a chemical compound commonly used for staining

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

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

results. My hypothesis was ‘as the surface-area-to-volume ratio decreases the diffusion rate increases’ my results support my hypothesis‚ because in my table of results when the surface area to volume ratio is at 14 the diffusion time is 38 seconds‚ then the ratio goes down to 9‚ and the time increases to 90 seconds. My graph also supports my hypothesis‚ because the curve on my graph slopes down which shows as the diffusion time increases the ratio decreases. One of my results that could possibly have
