sugars‚ salts‚ water and dissolved gases. Most materials move by simple diffusion from high concentration to low concentration. Some substances may be actively transported‚ which requires energy. The diffusion of water across a semi-permeable membrane is called osmosis. Osmosis is the net movement of molecules through a semi-permeable [1] membrane from an area of low solute concentration to an area with a high solute concentration. In this investigation‚ we are testing how concentration effects the rate

the trans‚ trans-1‚4-diphenyl-1‚3-butadiene‚ which is formed by a Wittig reaction along with the cis‚ trans isomeric diene. The reaction is carried out in two steps. First the Wittig salt is obtained through a simple nucleophilic displacement of chloride ion by triphenylphosphine. When treated with base‚ the Wittig salt forms a ylide which is a carbanion that acts as a nucleophile and adds to the carbonyl group. In this experiment‚ cinnamaldehyde is used as the carbonyl compound and yields mainly the

determining the protein content of the sample. In the Biuret Test‚ copper ions form a violet-colored complex when in the presence of peptide bonds in an alkaline solution. The intensity of the violet color is directly proportional to the protein concentration‚ according to the Beer-Lambert law. For this test‚ a specific reagent is needed‚ in this case‚ the biuret reagent. The alkaline solution is made of potassium hydroxide‚ a strong base. A compound of hydrated copper sulfate and potassium sodium tartrate

The Effect of Starch on the Activity of Amylase with pH Variable Lab Report‚ Fall 2011 East Tennessee State University Department of Biological Sciences By: Shelby Brackett Date Performed: October 10‚ 2011 Lab Instructor: Joseph Kusi Biology 1111‚ Section 018 Abstract Enzymes are very important in chemical reactions. They are used to speed up the reaction taking place. They act by binding to a specific substrate and form an enzyme-substrate complex that may put stress on chemical bonds

The film “Salt of the Earth” by Michael Wilson is a 1954 film that shows the prejudice ways against long time resident Mexican-American workers. It takes place in a small town in New Mexico. After a mining accident‚ workers began protesting the unfair wages and serious hazardous working conditions. A man by the name of Ramon helps the workers organizing the protest but is also found treating his wife Esperanza unfairly as well and that was a concern because why try and protest about someone being

"Do different concentrations of solutions determine the mass of a potato?" Introduction: The way to get the full results of this lab was through the process of osmosis. Osmosis is the movement of water across a membrane into a more concentrated solution to reach an equilibrium. When regarding cells osmosis has three different terms that are used to describe their concentration. The first of these words is isotonic. Cells in an isotonic solution show that the water has no net movement and the amount

Investigating the Effect of Concentration on the Rate of Enzyme Catalysed Reaction To investigate the effect of concentration on the rate of enzyme catalysed reaction I must know all the factors that affect it in order to investigate in this. Here are all the factors: Temperature- Enzyme like it warm but not too hot. Enzymes are biological catalysts‚ which speed up chemical reactions. They work most efficiently at the optimum point (37°C). If they are below 37°C they will work

Mahatma Gandhi proposed a non-violent march protesting the British Salt Tax‚ continuing Gandhi’s pleas for civil disobedience. The Salt Tax essentially made it illegal to sell or produce salt‚ allowing a complete British monopoly. Since salt is necessary in everyone’s daily diet‚ everyone in India was affected. The Salt Tax made it illegal for workers to freely collect their own salt from the coasts of India‚ making them buy salt they couldn’t really afford. Return to "India under British
