Methods for studying cells in the lab Centrifugation A centrifuge is a device for separating particles from a solution according to their size‚ shape‚ density‚ viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. Centrifugation can be used to separate cells from one culture or to isolate an organelle from the rest of the cell. The process relies on speed; the faster and longer the particle is centrifuged‚ the smaller the particles are that will be separated. Separation occurs by causing the larger particles

potential difference in voltaic cell. Aim: To investigate the effect of concentration of electrolyte of the potential difference in voltaic cell. Introduction: Chemical reactions involving the transfer of electrons from one reactant to another are called oxidation-reduction reactions or redox reactions. In a redox reaction‚ two half-reactions occur; one reactant gives up electrons (undergoes oxidation) and another reactant gains electrons (undergoes reduction). Voltaic cell is a device in which a
