    The purpose of this experiment is to become familiar with some properties of water and solutions and distinguish between such terms as diffusion‚ dialysis and osmosis. In this experiment‚ we will be going over water residue‚ water of hydration‚ solutions and dialysis. For Water Residue section‚ place about 1 mL of tap water on a clean watch glass and gently heat it until water has evaporated. Record if there is any residue and repeat this procedure using deionized water. Next‚ for Water of Hydration

    Osmosis Abstract The basic principles of Osmosis and Diffusion were tested and examined in this lab. We examined the percent increase of mass and molarity of different concentrations of sucrose in the dialysis bag emerged in distilled water and the potato cores emerged in concentrations of sucrose. The data reinforces the principles of Osmosis and Diffusion‚ and in a biological context‚ we can simulate how water and particles move in and out of our own

    gradients on the rate of osmosis. Osmosis is the cellular transport of water‚ this study was conducted to show the significance of the rate at which this occurs. Dialysis bags were filled with three different concentrations of sucrose solutions and two with water. They were then completely immersed in water with the exception of one dialysis bag‚ which was filled with water and immersed in a sucrose solution. The weight of the bags were then monitored and recorded at regular 15-minute intervals. The
