Exploration Research Question What is the effect of different concentrations of sucrose in a solution on the mass and surface area of a beetroot (Beta Vulgaris) piece? Background The membrane consists of a phospholipid bilayer which is semi permeable. Osmosis is the passive movement of water molecules from an area of high water potential to an area of low water potential across a semi-permeable membrane. It is easy for water molecules to pass through this membrane however solutes that are big in

an area of high concentration of sucrose solution to an area of lower concentration of sucrose solution‚ through a selectively permeable membrane. The water molecules move down a concentration gradient in osmosis. Two diagrams of osmosis are shown in figures 1 and 2. Figure 1 shows the diffusion of water molecules through a selectively permeable membrane from an area of highly concentrated sucrose solution to an area of lower concentrated sucrose solution. Figure 2 shows a concentration gradient

and Absorbance Solution colour results from the absorbance of some light wavelengths by solutes dissolved in solution‚ while allowing other wavelengths to pass through (transmittance). The combination of the remaining wavelengths that pass through results in the colour of the solution. A colorimeter can be used to determine the amount of light at a particular wavelength that is absorbed/transmitted by a solution. Depending on the concentration of the solute in the solution‚ more or less absorbance/transmittance

Determining the Concentration of a solution: Beer’s Law Objective In this lab of Determining the concentration of a unknown solution: Beers Law. We determined the concentration of a unknown CuSO4 solution by measuring its absorbance with the colorimeter. With all the calculations we were able to solve the linear regression Equation of absorbance vs. concentration and the alternate method.

In this study‚ we found that the growth of the duckweed thalli did not have a significant difference in the NP solution and the creek water solution. Although we found that the duckweed grows faster in the NP solution‚ rather than the creek water they do indeed have relatively the same mean. Overall our results supports our hypothesis. This also makes us question what kinds of factors are affecting the creek water to kill off the duckweed. Duckweed also is known to stop the growth of algae‚ but in

aims to discover the effect of 6 different treatments on the permeability of the cell membrane. These will be distilled water‚ sucrose‚ sodium hydroxide‚ hydrochloric acid‚ ethanol and boiled water. The treatments include immersion in these solutions‚ and exposure to high temperature. The tissue used is from the taproot of a beetroot‚ and the effect on the membrane’s permeability assessed by the amount of pigment leakage that occurs. Hypothesis ========== I predict that the
