Determining the Concentration of a Solution: Beer’s Law Purpose: The purpose of the experiment is to determine the concentration and formula of an unknown cobalt nitrate solution by measuring absorbance. Introduction: A Colorimeter will be used to determine the concentration and formula of an unknown cobalt nitrate solution. The colorimeter sends blue light from the LED light source to pass through the solution and hit a photocell. A solution with a higher concentration will absorb more

The Effect of Concentration Gradient on Osmosis Abstract: Osmosis is the passive movement of water from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration‚ usually across a membrane (Thorpe 2013). Tonicity is the ability of a solution surrounding a cell to gain or lose water (Reece 2011). There are many factors that affect the rate of osmosis. These include temperature‚ surface area‚ difference in water potential‚ pressure‚ light and dark and most importantly what we will be talking

Title: The effect of temperature on beet cell membranes. Introduction: 1. Eukaryotic cells are much more intricate than prokaryotic cells. The first thing observed is the assortment of structures in the cytoplasm. The fluid filled region between the nucleus and the plasma membrane. These structures along with the nucleus are the organelles‚ each having a specific function in the cell. The organelles are by membranes divided in proficient sections .The plant cell is made up of a rigid thick wall

Date: 14th-15th October Title: The effect of the concentration of hydrogen peroxide on catalase Aim: to examine how the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide affects the rate of reaction Hypothesis: The substrate concentration will determine the rate of reaction. The reaction will increase as the concentration increases‚ but from a certain concentration‚ the rate will maintain the same rate Materials: 3% hydrogen peroxide 6% hydrogen peroxide catalase round metal basin measuring cylinder

Practical Assessment 2 – The effect of substrate concentration on the rate of enzyme activity of Catalase Aim To investigate the effect of substrate concentration (manipulated by increasing concentration of hydrogen peroxide) on the rate of enzyme activity of catalase‚ produced by liver cells‚ on the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. Introduction Enzymes are biological catalysts that increase the rates of reactions. In an enzyme-catalyzed reaction‚ the substrate binds to the active site and

A key component of the quantification of the protein concentration in the given samples was the generation of a standard curve. The data presented in Table 1 produced the graph in Figure 1 which was then used to calculate a line of best fit. The line of best fit yielded an equation y= 0.44976x which was in turn used to calculate unknown protein concentrations of given samples. The absorbances of the whole milk‚ cereal milk and muscle milk had been previously obtained and recorded via spectrophotometer

factors that can influence the rate of diffusion through a membrane. Chemical kinetics plays a large part in diffusion. In order for a solute to passively diffuse through a membrane‚ it must line up with a pore in the membrane and pass through it (textbook 101). The concentration gradient is also important for diffusion because solutes diffuse from areas of high concentration to areas of low concentration (textbook page 101). There are different factors that can affect the rate of this diffusion. Our intent

different sucrose concentrations then the tube with the lowest concentration of sucrose will expand the potato the most because the water will move into the potato to even out the concentration levels of the sucrose/ water ratio inside and outside of the potato was supported by the data. The data shows that the potato submerged in the lowest concentration of the sucrose water solution had the greatest percent change in mass at 15.2% for 0% concentration. Overall‚ the higher the concentration of the solution

shrimps (UNT Lab Manual‚ 2017). They normally inhabit fresh to partly salty water and feed on fish‚ carrion‚ plants‚ and detritus. Because they are completely aquatic‚ they rely on their gills for breathing‚ but can spend short periods of time out of the water if their gills will not dry. Like most crustaceans‚ they have a hard‚ calcified exoskeleton. The heart is located in the upper portion of the cephalothorax‚ which is located just in front of the first abdominal segment (UNT Lab Manual‚ 2017)
