    amount of sucrose concentrations. The higher molarity concentrations increased the movement of water to balance out the inside of the tube and the beaker. The greater amount of concentration gradient‚ in each tube‚ increased the rate of osmosis. This rate of osmosis is due to the net movement of water from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. Because the tubes had different concentrations‚ certain tubes gained more mass than others. Solution A had 0.6 molarity which increased

    DIFFUSION AND OSMOSIS Chapter 3 of your textbook explains diffusion and osmosis. Diffusion is simply the net movement of atoms or molecules from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. The force behind the movement is heat or kinetic energy (also called Brownian motion). Diffusion occurs when you spill water on the carpet floor and it spreads out‚ or when you open a bottle of perfume and it leaves the bottle and spreads throughout the air in the room. Osmosis is a similar

    2.3. Membranes and modules for forward osmosis: 2.3.1. FO Membranes Generally‚ any dense‚ non-porous‚ selectively permeable material can be used as a membrane for FO. Such membranes have been tested (in flat sheet and capillary configurations) in the past for various applications of FO. In early studies‚ the researchers applied various FO membrane materials‚ including bladders of pigs‚ cattle‚ and fish; collodion (nitrocellulose); rubber; porcelain; and goldbeaters’ skin [36]. By 1960‚ Loeb and

    Lipids and Phospholipids The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The head which is hydrophilic contains a group of phosphate‚ a diglyceride and a simple molecule e.g. choline. The tail is hydrophobic and is made up of fatty acids. Phospholipids receive and transmit signals across the cell membrane and act as a store room for energy. The main role of phospholipids is that they can form lipid bilayers. It is an amphipathic molecule. The

    are in an area‚ the more collisions there will be. These collisions cause molecules to push away from each other. So‚ over time‚ the molecules of a substance will continue to spread out. Eventually‚ they will be spread evenly throughout the area. Osmosis is the diffusion of water. (when “the substance” that is diffusing is water)

    VII. Conclusion The hypothesis that if a potato is placed in a tube with different sucrose concentrations then the tube with the lowest concentration of sucrose will expand the potato the most because the water will move into the potato to even out the concentration levels of the sucrose/ water ratio inside and outside of the potato was supported by the data. The data shows that the potato submerged in the lowest concentration of the sucrose water solution had the greatest percent change in mass

    An investigation how sugar solutions of different concentrations affect osmosis. Research Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a partially permeable membrane from a dilute solution to one of a higher concentration. If a solution has a low concentration then the amount of (in the case of my investigation) sugar‚ the solute‚ will be low and the solution will be weak. If there is high amount of sugar then the solution will be concentrated (have a high concentration). When two solutions
