Osmosis Lab Report Hypothesis: Osmosis will occur when there is an uneven distribution of solute in a solvent. The higher the solute in solvent‚ then there will be a higher rate of osmosis through the diffusion gradient forming a hypertonic or hypotonic solution. Solvent with equal or no solute forms an isotonic solution. Materials: Distilled water‚ sucrose‚ dialysis tubing‚ string‚ 250 ml beaker. Procedure: To demonstrate and isotonic solution we needed 3 inches of dialysis tubing. We

G. Y. S. Period: 6 09/11/12 Osmosis Lab I. Objective: The purpose of this lab is to put the solutions in chronological order from least to most molarity. If the solutions are hypertonic then‚ the water will go in and the order of the substances will be C‚ D‚ A‚ B‚ E. II. Materials and Methods: See attached page. Results: Table 1.1 III. Table 1.1 | Initial | Final | % Change | A | 11.4 | 11.86 | 4.03% | B | 11.67 | 15.33 | 33.68% | C | 10.84 | 11.86 | 9.4% | D | 12.02 |

Sterling Hayden AP Biology Mrs. Proehl 24 November 2014 I. Title Effect of Differing pH‚ Temperature‚ and Enzyme Concentration on Catalase Reaction Rate II. Introduction Enzymes are used to increase the rate of specific reactions in the body. Catalase‚ a specific enzyme‚ speeds the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide‚ a toxic chemical produced by cells in the body‚ into water and oxygen (Cain and others‚ 2010). The oxygen can be observed as bubbles coming from the reaction site. Catalase is found in many living tissues of organisms

Purpose The purpose of this experiment was to become familiar with the electrocardiograph to help us determine the electrical activity of the heart. As well as‚ to observe how exercise and different body positions(conditions) can affect the activity of the heart. Introduction Trained professionals can look at the EKG tracing and determine if the heart is normal or if the heart is abnormal. “An ECG records the electrical activity of the heart. The heart produces tiny electrical impulses which spread

Synthesis of Tetraphenylcylopentadienone Post-Lab Report Purpose- This experiment illustrates the use of adol condensation for the synthesis of a five-membered carbocylic ring. It is also a good demonstration of the impact extended conjugation has on the absorption of visible light. The reactants are bright yellow in color while the products are a very deep purple color appearing almost black. Introduction- The synthesis of Tetraphanylcyclopentadienone was a further example of the adol

Osmosis Rates in Artificial Cells Daniel George Department of Biology Grand Valley State University 1 Campus Drive Allendale‚ MI 49401 georged@mail.gvsu.edu Abstract The lab for this paper was conducted for the topic of osmosis‚ the movement of water from high to low concentration. Five artificial cells were created‚ each being filled with different concentrated solutions of sucrose. These artificial cells were placed in hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic solutions for a period of 90

cName: Nicholas Cassel Gen Chem 1210 23 March 2013 Blinded By the Light Abstract: In this experiment we were provided a cereal box spectrometer to observe the emission lines of noble gases and hydrogen. Based on the scale readings on the spectrometer and the Balmer-Rydberg formula‚ their wavelengths and percent error were able to be extrapolated. Based on the literature values‚ the cereal box spectrometer proved its value as a decently accurate spectrometer. Introduction: Every element

Background The melting point of a compound is the temperature at which the solid is in equilibrium with its liquid. A solid compounds changes to a liquid when the molecules acquire enough energy to overcome the forces holding them together. A mixture melting point is useful in confirming and used to indentify an unknown compound‚ which we will be doing in this particular experiment. Purpose Measure the melting points of pure benzoic acid and pure mandelic acid. Determine the eutectic composition

Genetically Modified Organisms INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this lab was to identify if non-labeled food products are actually genetically modified foods. Before we could begin testing this theory we first had to gain an understanding about genetically modified organisms in general. This was rather easy because if you have been to any grocery store lately you have without a doubt seen products with labels saying "GMO-free" or even "contains only non-GMO ingredients." GMO actually stands for
