Chapter 1 The Problem and the Background of the Study A. Introduction One of the major problems in our country is energy shortage. There are many methods and proposals on how to conserve it such as the use of batteries. One of these is an electrolytic cell. It contains an electrolyte through which an externally generated electric current is passed by a system of electrodes (electrically positive electrode is called the anode and the negative electrode the cathode) in order to produce an electrochemical

Diffusion and Osmosis of Solutes and Water Across a Membrane Brittany Bacallao Nova Southeastern University Abstract: This experiment gave a visual understanding of osmosis and diffusion. The first experiment proved that solutes would move down a concentration gradient if permeable to the selective membrane. The second experiment proved different solute concentrations affect the movement of water‚ depending on the solute concentration inside the cell. The purpose of this lab was to look for

Osmosis is the spontaneous net movement of solvent molecules through a partially permeable membrane into a region of higher solute concentration‚ in the direction that tends to equalize the solute concentrations on the two sides. It may also be used to describe a physical process in which any solvent moves‚ without input of energy‚ across a semipermeable membrane separating two solutions of different concentrations. Although osmosis does not require input of energy‚ it does use kinetic energy and

Osmosis: How fast can you move? The Rate at which Osmosis Occurs when Exposed to Various Toxicities Within the human body many things are occurring at all times. Without these small‚ seemingly insignificant processes all human life would cease to exist. One of the aforementioned activities is Osmosis‚ or the movement of water across a selectively permeable membrane eventually establishing equilibrium on both sides of the concentration gradient (Freeman 90). During this specific experiment involving

molecules or ions to get in or to get out of the cell. There are three types of movement of particals across the cell: diffusion(and also facilitated diffusion)‚ osmosis and active transport. Diffusion and osmosis are passive movements and they don’t require any energy. Active transport requires ATP energy. OSMOSIS is the passive movement of water molecules across a partially permeable (semipermeable) membrane‚ from a region of lower solute concentration to a region of higher solute concentration in

Osmosis Aim: To determine the concentration of cell sap in a potato cell. Osmosis is the movement of water through a semi-permeable membrane. It starts from a weak solution and becomes a more stronger solution until the concentrations on both sides are equal. To investigate the range of solutions needed to find the point at which the surrounding solution is the same as the cell sap in the vacuole.

hypothesis made prior to the experiment was not correct - the distilled water did result in the most weight gain (g); however‚ the 5% salt concentration did not result in the least weight gain (g). Table 1 clearly highlights that the 3% salt concentration resulted in the least weight gain (g). The distilled water resulted in the most weight gain (g) because the solution is hypotonic – a hypotonic solution results in the water diffusing into the cell because the molecules of the substance are moving

rate of osmosis across a potato’s cell membrane submerged for 94 hours in the solutation. Background Information: Osmosis is the movement of solvent molecules across a partially permeable membrane. They move from a region of low concentration (hypotonic) to a region of high concentration (hypertonic). The rate of osmosis across a eukaryotic cell membrane can be affected by different factors; including temperature‚ concentration gradient‚ water potential and the surface area for osmosis to occur
