whatever the temperature may be. The larger the surface area‚ means there can be more “paths” from the sides of the body that are capable of releasing this heat particles‚ and reaching thermal equilibrium faster. This is what happens when a hotter body is subjected to a colder one. Research Question: How does the surface area to volume ratio affect heat loss in organisms? Hypothesis: I hypothesize that the larger the surface area to volume ratio‚ the more heat will be lost and vice versa

Agar From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search Not to be confused with auger or augur. For other uses‚ see Agar (disambiguation). Culinary usage Mizuyōkan - a popular Japanese red bean jelly made from agar. Scientific usage A blood agar plate used to culture bacteria and diagnose infection. Agar or agar-agar is a gelatinous substance derived by boiling[1] a polysaccharide in red algae‚ where it accumulates in the cell walls of agarophyte and serves as the primary structural

Planning Aim To determine how the surface area of the tablets affects the rate of the reaction. To determine which form of tablets gives the biggest surface area resulting in the fastest reaction rate. Investigation question: What is the relationship between the total surface area of the tablets and the rate of the reaction? Hypothesis: The rate of reaction will be the fastest when the tablets crushed into powder as there is a bigger total surface area resulting in more effective collisions

Lab Report DIFFUSION AND THE EFFECT OF AMYLASE. Aim: We will interpret and explain the activity of an enzyme added to a solution. We will analyze reactions in different pH ranges. The starch solution will appear blue when mixed with iodine. But after mixing the enzyme amylase to the starch‚ the starches are broken down into simple sugars. Now‚ when the iodine is added‚ no color change exist. Instruments and materials used: 1.) Dialysis bags x2 2.)

Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to determine how the surface area of CaCO3(s) affects the rate of reaction by measuring the volume of CO2(g) produced with time. Background: When solid reactants are mixed with liquid reactants only the particles on the surface of the solid will have direct contact‚ or collide‚ to the other liquid reactant particles. When there is more surface area there will be more solid particles exposed to collide

Background Information Surface area will increase the speed of reaction as the greater the surface of the solid reactants‚ the more particles are required to expose and ‘cover’ the capacity of the solid. Increased surface area results in an increased chance of collisions between reactant particles. Since the collisions become more frequent and abundant‚ the rate of reaction increases. Aim The aim of the experiment is to see if a greater surface area of a dissolvable tablet creates a faster or

Problem What effect does the different concentration of hydrochloric acid have to the rate of diffusion of agar that is dissolved with sodium carbonate and phenolphthalein? Introduction Diffusion is a process where the molecules intermingle as a result of their kinetic energy of random motion and is the net movement of like molecules down their concentration gradient‚ which is the energy inherent in their constant molecular motion makes them collide and careen outward from the region of higher

To investigate the relationship between surface area : volume ratio and heat loss. INTRODUCTION: The aim of this experiment is to investigate and find the relationship between heat loss (of water) and surface area to volume ratio of animals. To investigate this‚ we are going to use three flasks of different volume (as the equivalent the animals) and thus different surface areas filled with water. BACKGROUND: Surface Area : Volume Ratios We will be using the following formula for calculating

Scientific Paper on Diffusion 2 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using two tests: the glass tube test and the agar-water gel test. In the glass tube set-up‚ two cotton plugs soaked in two different substances (HCl and NH4OH) were inserted into the two ends of the glass tube. The substance with the lighter molecular weight value (NH4OH‚ M = 35.0459 g/mole) diffused at a faster rate (dAve = 25.8cm)‚ resulting in the formation of a white ring around the

Title: Diffusion Rate of Methylene Blue on Agar Plates at Different Temperatures Abstract: Diffusion is the movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration wherein substances are independent‚ rapid and in random motion which frequently collide with each other in the sides of the container. This study aimed to assess the influence of temperature on the diffusion rate of methylene blue on agar plates. To determine the relationship between the two variables
