    Osmosis Lab Introduction: In order for cells to interact with their environment‚ molecules must be able to move through the cell membrane. Movement within the cell occurs by diffusion. Molecules move through the cell membrane by osmosis. Diffusion is the movement of molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. This happens because of random molecular motion. Molecules move around randomly until there is an even mixture throughout cell and mixture. The overall

    Diffusion and Osmosis Experiment Methods/Materials: 7.1 Experiment: Rate of Diffusion of Solutes In the initial set up of this experiment I had 2 sets of 3 screw-cap test tubes that had each been half-filled with 5% gelatin and 1-mL of the correct dye (either potassium dichromate‚ aniline blue‚ or Janus green) in each of the test tubes. I labeled the 3 test tubes of set 1 with which die they contained and marked them “5 ˚C”. Then with the other set I did the same exact thing‚ except I labeled

    Osmosis Experiment

    • 5 Pages

    Introduction In chemistry‚ substances require a certain amount of energy in the form of average kinetic energy (temperature) to freeze. To reach the temperature a substance requires to freeze‚ it must lose a certain amount of heat energy (a form of energy transferred from one object to another‚ because of a temperature difference). When a substance reaches its freezing point and begins to freeze‚ its temperature remains constant until it is completely frozen. However‚ in order to melt a substance

    9/17/2013‚ Lois Andersen & Claire Ma “The Power of Osmosis” The purpose of the lab was to discover‚ through osmosis‚ the concentration of sugar water in a potato. First‚ potatoes were cut into strips about 3 centimetres in length and six strips were individually massed. Next‚ the six strips were placed in 6 different Dixie cups‚ labelled A‚ B‚ Q‚ X‚ Y‚ and Z. Each of the Dixie cups were then filled just enough to cover the potato strips‚ with substances that matched the letters of the cups

    Introduction In this experiment‚ I measured the impact of two different topical chemicals on growing bacteria over the course of a week. Bleach‚ water‚ hand sanitizer and hand soap were all variables used to observe the effects of the bacteria swabbed from my palm and fingers. Bleach has been the go to product for killing germs and it is because of the similar effects it has with high temperature on the proteins in bacteria. I hypothesized that bleach would be the most efficient way for killing the

    shows the higher the concentration of salt the higher the drop in mass. This happened because the potato slices in the 0% and 5% salt concentration became turgid which means it had swollen and became hard. This occurred because of the process called osmosis in which plant cells take up water and they start to swell‚ but the cell wall prevents them from bursting. Evaluation In my opinion the experiment was very successful‚ went according to plan and produced a lot of good results. The timing‚ weighing

    concentration of the reactants and products does not change with time. Before this experiment‚ we were educated on how osmosis functions. Osmosis is a process which molecules and water take to usually get through a selectively permeable membrane in order to reach equilibrium. It is a passive transport which requires no ATF and water moves from high to low water concentration. When osmosis is completed‚ there should be an equal concentration o water on both sides of the experiment. We have also learned

    Osmosis and Water Potential Year 11 Emary Venter INTRODUCTION: The cell is the basic unit of living things‚ and is made up of multiple organelles. Organelles are membrane bound subdivisions‚ each specialised for a specific function. This experiment looks at the Plasma Membrane‚ which is a semipermeable layer surrounding the cell. It’s primary job is to control what goes in and out of the cell. Molecules can move across this membrane in either an active movement or a passive movement
