Discussion: In the experiment‚ I believe the phenomenon to take place is osmosis. Osmosis is the movement/diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of high concentration of water molecules (high water potential) to an area of a low concentration

Helicopter Experiment Prediction: As the mass on the helicopter’s copters increases‚ the speed taken for the rotors to spin down faster‚ this is because there will be more downward pull from gravity‚ as the terminal velocity for a paper helicopter is low. Variables: Independent variable will be the mass that we change throughout the experiment. The dependant variable will be the time that we measure for the helicopter to reach the floor. Finally the controlled variables include‚ the helicopter

to determine the solubility constant of calcium hydroxide. But‚ there are few limitations in solubility constant concept‚ like the Diverse Ion effect and the Common ion effect. Sources of error probably were the assumptions made throughout the experiment and can be explained further by the limitations of the solubility constant. ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- Introduction In a reaction where a slightly soluble ionic solid

Explain how Donders experiment can be repeated in a modern laboratory using the physiological approach to the study of the mind Donder’s work attempts to describe the processes going on in the mind‚ by analyzing cognitive activity into separate stages. Until Donder’s work‚ many scientists had assumed that the mental operations involved in responding to a stimulus occurred instantaneously. Donder was particularly interested in "timing
