Biology GCSE Coursework: Osmosis in Potato Chips Skill Area P: Planning Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution’s molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially

Research Question: Which salt solution caused the sailor to die? Hypothesis: If the sailor drank the 40% salt water solution‚ then would die sooner‚ because the high amount of salt causes more dehydration. Variables: Independent- Salt Solution Dependent- Mass of Potato Control- Tap Water Materials: •Tap Water (50 ml for each cup) •Salt •Beaker •3 cups •3 pieces of potato •Scale Procedure: Step 1: Gather Materials. Step 2: Weigh each potato separately on the scale and record weight

BIOLOGY OSMOSIS LAB REPORT 1. Research Question/ Aim How do the different sodium chloride concentrations of solutions affect the length (measured in mm) and mass (measured in grams) of potato cores placed in them overnight (approximately 10 hours)? 2. Hypothesis Alternative hypothesis: As the concentration of sodium chloride in the solution increases‚ the mass of the potato cores will decrease. If the solution they are in has a lower water potential than the potato cores‚ there will be

extracellular solution‚ this was deemed the baseline. When we punctured each of the DEM‚ DEL1‚ and DEL2 crayfish muscles‚ we observed a large drop in voltage (refer to Figure 1)‚ therefore indicating that inside the muscle was more negative in relation to the outside solution. The time when the pipette was intramuscular‚ the recording showed a steady reading of the intramuscular voltage potential (Figure 1). When the pipette was removed from the crayfish muscle and was back in the extracellular solution‚ the

Compared to the deaths of the holocaust which would stand at 11 million. 94 million is a to high number‚ when dealing with innocent lives. The Potato Eaters‚ a painting by Vincent Van Gogh‚ a novel by George Orwell published in 1954‚ and “Dog‚” a 1977 song performed by Pink Floyd and written by David Gilmour explore the idea that communists countries have harsh conditions that will be apart of

My 48 hour ice cube addiction simulation turned out to be very different than what i had expected. I don’t put an ice cubes in my water cup at all. So my ice maker in the freezer is always empty. So I have to keep the ice maker full of ice cubes to use it in my addiction simulation. My first hour in the 48 hours simulation I was trying to fill my water bottle with ice cubes. I spilled some of ice cubes on the floor. My dad got suspicious when I filled a water bottle full of ice cubes‚ because I’m not

“Amerikkka’s Most Wanted”‚ “The Grand Wizard”. There is only one man who holds the right to all these names‚ and that is the rap star‚ Ice Cube. O’Shea Jackson Sr.‚ soon to be called Ice Cube by his fans and friends‚ would grow up to be a tremendously influential piece of American hip hop‚ and helped cast the mold for future singers to form their careers in the likeness of. Ice Cube is one of the greatest rappers to ever live. He was raised in South Central L.A.‚ which is where he first begins to see his reason

Effect of Iodine on mercury concentrations in dental-unit wastewater John Michael Panganiban and Ian Jasper Ocampo Objective: This study was undertaken to determine whether iodine used to control bacteria in dental unit wastewater could increase mercury concentrations in dental wastewater. Introduction: Two of the major concerns in dentistry are biofilm in dental unit waterlines and the contamination of dental unit wastewater with mercury. Biofilms are microscopic communities that consist

peroxide reacts with iodide ions producing iodine‚ when in an aqueous acid solution. H2O2 (aq) + 2I- (aq) + 2H3O+(aq) I2 (aq) + 2H2O(l) To detect iodine you can look at the color shown by the addition of starch solution. Iodine also reacts with sodium thiosulphate solution‚ which acts as a delaying agent. Adding sodium thiosulphate to the reaction mixture will allow the iodine produced initially to react with the thiosulphate ions‚ which reduce the iodine to iodide ions‚ leaving the starch unchanged

of a Potato Mishal Hasan Abstract Students in Biology find it difficult to understand the concept of tonicity and osmolarity in a real time situation. In this investigation‚ several concentrations of sucrose were used to determine the osmolarity of a potato. It was found that the concentration of sucrose was close to 3.6 in the potato used showing that it was isotonic. Anything above caused the potato to gain weight showing that it was a hypotonic solution and anything below caused the potato to lose
