The Effect of pH on the Rate of Osmosis Using a Glucose Solution Melissa Werderitch Biology 157 11/6/06 Introduction In a journal article written by Florian Lang‚ osmosis is essentially explained as the flow of water from one area to another that are separated by a selectively permeable membrane to equalize concentrations of particles in the two locations (Lang‚ 1997). Osmosis is able to maintain osmotic pressure and regulate a cell’s volume. In a hypotonic () or hypertonic () environment

Experiment 8: Hydrogen Phosphate Buffer Systems Purpose The purpose of the lab was to create a buffer solution and observe the capacity of the phosphate buffer system. Also‚ the experiment was meant to provide experience with the calculations and mathematics involved in creating the buffer solution. Finally‚ the lab was designed to provide an insight and appreciation for the necessity and complexity of buffers in our physiology and in the environment. Procedure No deviations were made from

The pH Scale is a scale made to show how acidic or alkaline a substance is. The pH of something is measured with pH paper which can vary from wide range paper‚ which covers all ph’s‚ but is not as accurate at some others. There are pH papers that get very specific that can have a range such as 2 or 3 and get much more precise. The neutral on the scale is 7. Anything that is below 7 is considered acidic and anything above 7 is considered alkaline. Acidic substances contain more H+ than OH-. H+

objective of this lab is to determine the pH level of common household products. Introduction Liquids are either acidic‚ basic‚ or neutral. We are able to figure out which one it is based on properties‚ along with the pH. Acids taste sour‚ and bases taste bitter. Using the pH scale‚ you are able to know how strong of an acid or base a liquid is. High concentration of [H+] ions means that the liquid has a low pH. Therefore a liquid with a low concentration of [H+] would have a high pH. A pH of less than

Amylase Enzyme vs. Starch vs. pH vs. Temperature Taylor Ellsworth Professor Michael Bunch Cell Biology 112 “Effects of Amylase reaction time when breaking down starch.” Experiment Goal: The goal of our experiment was to understand the similarities in digestion by finding out how long it takes for the amylase enzyme‚ found in saliva‚ to break down our substrate‚ starch. Hypothesis: While understanding that starch is broken down by our saliva (amylase enzyme) we predict that the higher

Scheduling Basics DDMRP uses buffered “Decoupling Points” to establish independent planned and scheduled horizons. DDMRP creates resupply signals based on the “available stock” status of each buffer. This gives prioritized sequence based on actual need. On-the-floor priority is then determined by the real time buffer status of the decoupling points that the open orders are feeding. When Will we Need More Scheduling Capability? • When the use of better shop floor scheduling will compress lead times and

pH pH means Power of Hydrogen or Potential of Hydrogen. pH is a scale of acidity from 0 to 14. It tells how acidic or alkaline a substance is. More acidic solutions have lower pH. More alkaline solutions have higher pH. Substances which are not acidic or alkaline i.e neutral usually have a pH of around 7. Acids have a pH less than 7. Alkalis have a pH greater than 7. There are a lot of ways for finding the pH of something. One way is to use litmus paper. The pH paper is able to tell how strong

BUFFER STOCK SCHEMES The prices of agricultural products such as wheat‚ cotton‚ cocoa‚ tea and coffee tend to fluctuate more than prices of manufactured products and services. This is largely due to the volatility in the market supply of agricultural products coupled with the fact that demand and supply are price inelastic. Products with unstable conditions of supply and demand will experience price fluctuations. Agricultural (farm) prices tend to be volatile because: Supply changes because
