    to bump into each other and move in new directions. Diffusion is one result of this molecular movement. Diffusion is the random movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to areas of lower concentration. Osmosis is a special kind of diffusion where water moves through a selectively permeable membrane that only allows certain molecules to diffuse though (Lab Manual 7e‚ 2010). Diffusion or osmosis occurs until dynamic equilibrium has been reached. This is the point

    Assignment no.1 (Finals) 1.)What is Osmosis? Osmosis is the diffusion of the movement of water from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration through a cell membrane or other semi-permeable membrane until an equilibrium is reached. It is a special case of diffusion (passive transport).  Basic Explanation : Osmosis can occur when there is a partially permeable membrane‚ such as a cell membrane. When a cell is submerged in water

    Extracting NaCl from Rock Salt and assessing its purity Aim The aim of this experiment was to obtain a pure product from a solution through the processes o extraction‚ filtering and evaporation. Introduction Extraction is used when trying to separate or purify a product. For an extraction to be successful the substance used to make the solvent should readily dissolve. The substance used in this practical was rock salt. The liquid used should not react with the substance that needs extracting

    Abstract This experiment was designed to answer the question does temperature affect the amount of osmosis? The hypothesis predicted was that the higher the temperature the more osmosis would occur‚ but too high the osmosis would halt due to enzyme and substrate overheating and losing shape. After research and class time it was concluded that osmosis is a passive transport and would not require energy or enzymes due to it going from high to low concentrations with the gradient

    very well. Osmosis and Water Potential in Potato Tissue Melanie Shadish‚ Rob Harris‚ Patricia Tellekamp Water appears to cross the differentially permeable membrane of potato cells by a process called osmosis. The measure of the energy involved in osmosis is called water potential. Since water must lose energy as it moves by osmosis‚ water must move from an area of greater potential to an area of less water potential‚ until the water potential on either side of the membrane is the same‚ at

    requirements in General Biology I laboratory under Prof. Cheryl M. Talde‚ 2nd sem.‚ 2011-2012. 1 2 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was assessed using two tests: the glass tube test and the agar-water gel test. In the glass tube set-up‚ two cotton plugs soaked in two different substances (HCl and NH4OH) were inserted into the two ends of the glass tube. The substance with the lighter molecular weight value (NH 4OH‚ M = 35.0459 g/mole) diffused at a faster rate

    Biological Membranes: A simulation Introduction Diffusion is the process by which collisions between molecules cause to spread apart. This movement is described as movement from an area of greater concentration to an area of lower concentration. Hence‚ diffusion continues until the molecules are equally distributed. This is to ensure that molecules have reached a state of equilibrium. Diffusion occurs spontaneously‚ no energy is involved. In cells‚ Diffusion occurs through cell membrane which is
