    Osmosis Coursework

    • 4095 Words
    • 17 Pages

    INTRODUCTION: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solutions molecules from a region in which they are highly concentrated to a region in which they are less concentrated. This movement must take place across a partially permeable membrane such as a cell wall‚ which lets smaller molecules such as water through but does not allow bigger molecules to pass through. The molecules will continue to diffuse until the area in which the molecules are found reaches a state of equilibrium

    Faith like potatoes Although it might be a cliché inspirational movie on the outside but in the inside there’s much more than that especially because it was based on a true story. The movie titled “Faith like potatoes “is an eye-opener to those people who are lost in their own way and that too many things kept them busy enough to forget God. From the start of the film‚ I wondered why the title was like that. Why is faith compared to potatoes? So when I learned about Angus’s life‚ from the

    School | [Osmosis Practical Report] Abstract: | The purpose of this investigation is to see if the concentration of Sodium chloride (NaCl) solution will affect the mass of the potato cylinder hence the rate of osmosis. This can be done by placing 5‚ identical in length (3cm) but different in weight‚ tubes of potato in 5 different beakers. Each containing an altered NaCl concentration. The concentrations used in this experiment were‚ 0%‚ 2%‚ 10%‚ 15%‚ and 26%. Potatoes were weighed prior

    Effect of osmosis rate on different surface areas‚ depending on different types of water solution An investigation showing the effect of surface area on osmosis rate‚ including some different types of water concentration. Osmosis is a type of passive (not requiring energy) transport of water molecules across partially permeable membrane‚ from an area of high water concentration into area of low water concentration. But how does surface area affect rate of osmosis? Surface area plays important

    he mass and length of the potato piece must be kept the same in each experiment primarily because they affect the surface area of the piece‚ and varying surface area could have a great effect on the rate of osmosis. This is because in an experiment where the potato chip has a large surface area‚ there is a larger area of partially permeable membrane and therefore more opportunity for water particles to pass through. I will keep the surface area the same by keeping the mass and length

    Rate of Osmosis vs Solute Concentration Introduction: In nature‚ the quest to reach equilibrium‚ or the state of rest or balance due to the equal action of opposing forces (http://www.dictionary.com). Osmosis and diffusion are two ways that cells reach this equilibrium‚ without exerting energy. Due to the unique nature of the phospholipid bilayer‚ small molecules can pass through the semipermeable membrane easily‚ through diffusion (https://www.biologycorner.com). Water‚ however‚ has a slightly more

    GROWS POTATOES IN CHINA After entering China in 1982‚ Pepsi continued to do well in the country‚ offering a wider range of products than its arch-rival‚ Coca-Cola. Pepsi’s potato chip business was successful despite competition from other multinational rivals and Chinese domestic brands. As its potato chips became more successful‚ however‚ the problem of how to secure a supply of quality potatoes also grew. In the North American market‚ Pepsi relied on external suppliers for its potatoes. But

    Diffusion of Ammonium hydroxide with red litmus paper Definition of diffusion 1. Diffusion is the process in which particles move from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration in order to evenly spread out. 2 Diagram. 3. During the diffusion tube experiment I noted that firstly ammonium hydroxide was placed on to a piece of cotton wool. The cotton wool (with the ammonium hydroxide) was then placed in to a diffusion tube containing around 10 pieces of curled red
