investigate the effects of osmosis on a potato cell as it is immersed for a period of time in solutions of different water concentrations. Hypothesis: If the potato is immersed into the distilled water‚ then it will be the heaviest out of the three. This is because water is at the lower is moving toward the area of higher concentration‚ which in this case is the potato. This solution is a hypotonic solution which is exactly opposite as a hypertonic because the outside of the cell has a higher concentration

the tonicity of solutions with varying concentrations of sodium chloride on the red blood cells of sheep by measuring the transmittance of a red blood cell/NaCl solution with a spectrometer. This is done in order to study the effects of solutions containing varying levels of tonicity to red blood cells. Tonicity describes what happens to a cell when it is placed in a certain solution. Hypertonic solutions contain a lower solute concentration than the cell cytoplasm‚ hypotonic solutions contain a higher

test the weight of six potatoes before and after being put into different sucrose solutions. The following data was observed and collected throughout the experiment. Observations: -Qualitative: The potatoes were: Tubed shaped Yellow in color Initially hard in texture -Quantitative: Table 1: Weight of the potato in grams before and after placed in a different concentrations of sucrose solutions. Sucrose solution (M) Weight Before (g) ± 0.01 (A) Weight After (g) ± 0.01 (B) 0 4.56 4.31

Introduction: The importance of this lab is to get a deeper understanding of how the concepts of solutions and insolubility applies to the lab’s purpose of making chalk using precipitation reactions. A precipitation reaction is when a solid/ precipitate (insoluble) is formed when two solutions that contain soluble salts are combined. Some additional scientific concepts investigated in this lab are insolubility‚ double replacement‚ and limiting reactants. Insolubility occurs when a solute is incapable

xxx1 xxxxxx Ms. xxxx Biology 20 November 2013 Osmosis Lab Problem: What’s the order of the concentration for each solution and how does it affect the movement of water? Hypothesis: Experimenter thinks the order of the solutions according to their concentration is D‚A‚E‚C‚B‚ from smallest. And the water will pass through semipermeable tubing bag from low to high concentration to thin the concentration inside the bag. Osmosis is a diffusion of water particles and is one of the passive transport

background information 1.1 Diffusion is the process which molecules dissipate into a solution evenly over a period of time. An example is putting sugar in your coffee‚ after a while if you don ’t mix the solution‚ the sucrose will over time‚ go through the process of diffusion and be distributed throughout the coffee. Osmosis is movement of H2O molecules passing through a permeable cell membrane to the less concentrated solution‚ eventually to reach an equivalent number of molecules on both sides of the cell

Eggs were soaked in vinegar for twenty-four hours before the lab to dissolve the shell‚ then placed them into the distilled water. Then the eggs were taken out and dried by the paper towel to measure their weight on the electronic scale. First egg weighted 78.92g‚ most of the parts of it’s skin was white translucent‚ and was spongy. After the egg was submerged into the salt solution‚ it floated on

information‚ Sales and Marketing must clearly define the exact requirements of the customer to ensure they are incorporated into the specification. There is no easy way of solving the design problem and transforming the specification into a design solution. Whatever the system whereby the initial specification is produced‚ the method used to translate it into the final design always follows a basic pattern and can be summarised in the following five steps. 1. Identification of the problem.
