Lab 3 – Homework 1. Purpose of today’s experiment: To determine the effect osmotic pressure might have on cellular membranes‚ specifically when beet slices are placed in NaCl solutions of varying concentrations. 2. Hypothesis: The osmolarity will directly increase with increasing NaCl concentrations. 3. Control = Distilled Water – this was present in all solutions 4. The independent variable – salinity of the 6 solutions; while predetermined‚ the NaCl concentrations varied from 0% to 15%.

EFFECT OF ROOM TEMPERATURE ON THE BURN-RATE OF A CANDLE BURNS Have you ever wondered whether a candle burns more quickly on a hot day‚ than on a cold day? Or is it the other way around? This science fair project was carried out to compare how quickly a candle will burn at different room temperatures. The experiment was done by measuring how much of a candle will melt in 30 minutes when placed in an environment with surrounding temperatures of 20°C‚ 25°C and 30°C. Hypothesis A candle in a colder

MOTOR TEMPERATURE RATINGS A frequently misunderstood subject related to electric motors is insulation class and temperature ratings. This paper tries to describe‚ in basic terms‚ the temperature relationships that are meaningful in standard AC induction motors. Some of the same information can be applied to DC motors but DC motors are more specialized and some of the ratings are slightly different. Perhaps the best way to start is to define the commonly used terms. MOTOR SURFACE TEMPERATURES

Problem Question: * What effect does temperature have on the rate of Diffusion? Hypothesis: If we put the antacid in hot water‚ then it will dissolve faster than in cold water or room temperature water. Material List: * One thermometer * 3 beakers (of the same size) * 3 antacid tablets * Cup of ice * Hot plate * Paper towels * Water Procedures: Step 1: Gather materials Step 2: Label the beaker #1‚ #2‚ and #3 Step 3: Fill each beaker with the same amount of

AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED FAN H ere is a circuit through which the speed of a fan can be linearly controlled automatically‚ depending on the room temperature. The circuit is highly efficient as it uses thyristors for power control. Alternatively‚ the same circuit can be used for automatic temperature controlled AC power control. In this circuit‚ the temperature sensor used is an NTC thermistor‚ i.e. one having a negative temperature coefficient. The value of thermistor resistance at

Title: The effect on temperature on beet cell membranes. Introduction A cell membrane or plasma membrane is very important in protecting cells. A cell membrane is a thin layer that protects the cells. The membrane is filled with lipids and proteins. The cell membrane protects the cell from ions and molecules that enter and exit the cells. I hypothesize that at -5 degrees Celsius‚ the color intensity will be a 1. I hypothesize that at 5 degrees Celsius‚ the color intensity will be a 2

Evaluation Like any experiment‚ there were a number of potential errors during the procedure of the experiment. Errors could have arisen as a result of the uncertainties associated with the instruments I used to take measurements‚ and also as a result of errors associated with the actual method. Of course‚ due to the limitations of the procedure‚ they could not be eliminated completely‚ so I will explain what I did to reduce them to an acceptable level and how I could have improved my method to
