this experiment was to test the effect of a specialized type of diffusion called osmosis‚ “which involves in selective transport of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane” (Lab Manual 2nd edition). It was hypothesized that osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The more abundant the solute is in solvent‚ the higher the rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute

class average‚ there is evidence that osmosis did occur in the bags. The largest change in mass was in the 1.0M sucrose bag the mass went from 12g initially to 14.2g‚ this gained 2.2g‚ an 18.3% change in mass for the group data over the duration of the experiment. The 0.2M bag went from 10.2g to 10.9g a 6.9% change in mass; the 0.4M bag went from 12.1g to 12.2g .83% change in mass; the 0.8M bag went from 10.9g to 12.2g and an 11.9% change in mass. During osmosis water diffuses‚ going from an area

Osmosis is the diffusion of a solvent across a selectively permeable membrane that occurs in response to differences in solute concentrations (Allen and Harper 2014).Osmosis can fall under the category of passive transport which does not require energy. With osmosis being a type of diffusion it is viewed as molecules moving from a high concentration to a low concentration. To further explain if there is a low water concentration‚ high amounts of solutes will be present. Water will most likely move

zmosis The IB Lab Report Measuring osmosis 1. Introduction My experiment is about osmosis on a potato and if or the quantity of salt affects osmosis. I would do the experiment with 5 potatoes cut into squares all the potatoes weight the same so the weight can`t be a variable the I put the potatoes on 5 different plastic cups with different amounts of salt and then I weight them again to see if the quantity of salt affected the osmosis of potatoes 1a. Research question ¿Does the quantity

Diffusion and Osmosis Experiment Methods/Materials: 7.1 Experiment: Rate of Diffusion of Solutes In the initial set up of this experiment I had 2 sets of 3 screw-cap test tubes that had each been half-filled with 5% gelatin and 1-mL of the correct dye (either potassium dichromate‚ aniline blue‚ or Janus green) in each of the test tubes. I labeled the 3 test tubes of set 1 with which die they contained and marked them “5 ˚C”. Then with the other set I did the same exact thing‚ except I labeled

Lab Questions By Zackary Conte and Justin Dvorsak The first experiment with 1 M sucrose in the bag and distilled water in the beaker had almost exactly the same results. The masses were relatively the same the difference have could been from the amount of liquid that was placed inside of each of the bags. The second experiment with 5% Ovalbumin in the bag and 1 M sucrose in the beaker had almost exactly the same results. The masses were relatively the same the difference could have been from the

Osmosis The purpose of this lab is to study how membranes of plant and animal cells react when exposed to different solutions. The first experiment involves purple onion skin and the second involves rat blood in various solutions. I needed to understand certain terms before preforming this lab to be able to efficiently explain what is happening to the cells. Diffusion is the tendency of a substance to move down its concentration gradient from a more concentrated to a less concentrated area.

Being a couch potato is what many of us tend to be when we are on a break or on a holiday but why not try to do something different and useful that could bring benefits to one’s self? Earning additional cash over the internet could be let us just say one of the most beneficial way to kill time. Making extra cash is not easy but it is definitely worth the effort because the extra cash could come in handy during the rainy days. Besides‚ it’s easier earning some side income through the internet than

: Osmosis in Quail’s Eggs Research Question What is the effect of different concentrations of sodium Chloride (NaCl) on the mass of the de-shelled quail’s eggs? Introduction Osmosis is an example of passive transport. Osmosis is defined as the movement of water molecules‚ down its concentration gradient‚ from an area of high water concentration (low solute concentration) to an area of lower water concentration (high solute concentration) through a selectively permeable membrane. Osmosis doesn’t

A potato battery is a type of electrochemical cell. An electrochemical cell converts chemical energy into electrical energy. In the potato battery‚ there is a transfer of electrons between the zinc coating the galvanized nail that will be inserted into the potato and the copper wire that will be inserted another part of the potato. The potato conducts electricity‚ yet keeps the zinc ions and copper ions separate‚ so that the electrons in the copper wire are forced to move (generate current). It’s
