    • 13 Pages

    Biology GCSE Coursework: Osmosis in Potato Chips Skill Area P: Planning Aim: To investigate the effect of varying concentration of a certain sugar solution on the amount of osmotic activity between the solution and a potato chip of a given size. Hypothesis: Osmosis is defined as the net movement of water or any other solution’s 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

    concentrations on the activity of osmosis in plant tissue. Background scientific theory: Plants exchange gases (CO2 and O2) in maintaining vital respiratory processes and in carrying out photosynthesis; they absorb certain minerals and sugars so to use as a source of energy and eradicate wastes in order to maintain specific requirements for survival. Large amounts of water are absorbed by root hairs and are then distributed across the cells of plants by the process of osmosis; water being essential to

    Diffusion‚ Osmosis‚ Active Transport There are two ways in which substances can enter or leave a cell: 1) Passive a) Simple Diffusion b) Facilitated Diffusion c) Osmosis (water only) 2) Active a) Molecules b) Particles Diffusion Diffusion is the net passive movement of particles (atoms‚ ions or molecules) from a region in which they are in higher concentration to regions of lower concentration. It continues until the concentration of substances is uniform throughout. Some major examples of diffusion

    because the lower the concentration of sugar the greater its water potential and consequently the faster the rate of osmosis. The results show that in each of the five sugar solutions‚ the rate of osmosis decreased with time. This happened because the difference in water potential between the inside and the outside of the beetroot time decreased as the experiment proceeded. Osmosis occurred most in distilled water because this contained the highest water potential when compared with the other beakers

    Osmosis Experiment

    • 1101 Words
    • 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

    Investigating the effect of different concentrations of glucose on the percent change in mass of Gummy bears according to their respective colours In this experiment osmosis is the main process taking place. Osmosis is the diffusion of water molecules of a solvent which pass through a semi permeable layer and in most cases are due to a concentration gradient meaning that the water molecules travel from an area of low concentration to one of higher concentration. In this investigation‚ gummy bears

    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
