    Osmosis Osmosis is just a special case of diffusion - where water diffuses through a membrane which has different concentrations on either side. Permeable means "allows anything to pass through". Membranes in cells allow small molecules (water) to pass through‚ but prevent bigger ones from passing. This is called "selectively permeable". Take a look at the following animation; If a selectively permeable membrane separates the two solutions‚ water moves through it in both directions at

    power an iPod with a Gatorade-soaked onion doesn’t work. Many Internet users ­today have made the same discovery after viewing the video in question‚ produced by the Web site HouseholdHacker.com.­ First‚ let’s examine the idea of powering any electronic device with a fruit or vegetable. The concept is believable because you can create a battery with a few potatoes. This experiment is a science class favorite because it helps demonstrate how the galvanic cells that make up a car battery work.

    The purpose of this lab was to observe the rate of osmosis and diffusion‚ as well as the effect of molecular size of the particles on this rate. Part I of the lab was a demonstration of osmosis and diffusion‚ that dealt with raisins in different liquid environments‚ each with a different concentration of sugar. Part IV of the lab was using the same idea as the demonstration‚ by putting objects in different concentrations of a substance; in this case elodea leaves in salt water. In both cases‚ the

    Osmosis in Potato Tissue Experiment  Background Information  Osmosis can be defined as the movement of water across a  semi-permeable membrane from a region of high water concentration to a  region of low water concentration.  The semi-permeable membrane allows small particles through it but does  not allow large particles such as sodium chloride. Osmosis will  continue until a state of equilibrium is reached i.e. there is no area  with a higher or lower concentration than another area

    This trial was performed to decide the percent centralizations of starch in two distinct arrangements. It showed us through the strategy utilized‚ which was osmosis (the dispersion of watered). Osmosis normally indicates on the grounds that it began to change in the mass for both the dialysis tubing loaded with the bizarre arrangement and the container of sucrose and water. Demonstrated that dissemination of water had happened over the semi-penetrable dialysis tubing. It’s checked on the grounds

    weigh less due to osmosis. Our null hypothesis was: If the pH level of a solution is either acidic or basic‚ then it will have no effect on the weight. The independent variable was the different solutions of different pH values. The dependent variable was the weight of the potato‚ which was measured in grams. The baseline of this experiment is the weight of the potato when in the milk solution because milk has a neutral pH. The controls in this experiment are that each sample had
