Investigation of Factors Affect Osmosis in Potatoes Aim The aim of the following experiment was to investigate the effect of varying the concentration of sucrose solution on osmosis in a potato. Preliminary Experiments One preliminary experiment was done before the main experiment. From the preliminary‚ we were trying to find out how osmosis actually occurred in potatoes‚ and gave us a vague idea on what the main experiment would be like. This preliminary will aid my prediction

MIXTURES‚ SOLUTIONS‚ SUSPENSIONS AND COLLOIDS MIXTURES A mixture is a combination made up of two or more different substances which are mixed but are not chemically bonded. There are also types of mixtures such as homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures. SOLUTIONS A solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture composed of a solute; a substance dissolved into another substance known as a solvent. They can also be defined as groups of molecules that are mixed up completely in even

Experiment 3 : Preparation of Solutions and Buffers Objectives : 1. To study and understand the principle theory and formula of preparation of buffer and solution. 2. To learn the methods of buffer and solution preparation. 3. To focus on concentration units of molarity‚ percentage of concentration‚ and dilution of solution. Introduction : When a substance‚ called a solute‚ is dissolved in another substance‚ called the solvent‚ a solution is formed. A solution is known as a homogeneous

Biology Hl lab report: Topic: Osmosis of potatoes in different sucrose solutions. The aim of this experiment is to test whether more water moves out of a potato when it is placed in a sweeter sucrose solution than a potato in a less sweet solution. The hypothesis of the experiment is that we expect more water to move out of the potato placed in the sweet solution than the potato placed in a less sweet solution. Independent variable: concentration of sucrose‚ concentrations: pure water

Determine the concentration of an unknown copper (II) sulfate solution by using colorimeter Introduction: The concentration of the solution also alterations the proximity of the solution. For example‚ the more focused concentration will frame to be denser than more weakened concentration of copper (ii) sulfate. This implies there is a connection between the concentration of an solution and its absorbance. Along these lines‚ this test is set up to discover the kind of connection between the concentration

and Properties of Solutions INTRODUCTION The experiment aimed to describe the various ways of expressing the concentration of solutions; prepare solutions of definite concentrations from standard substances by dilution and solve problems involving preparation of solutions and their concentrations. BACKGROUND INFORMATION A solution is any homogenous mixture of two or more substances‚ the relative properties of which may vary within certain limits. The two components of solutions are the solute

2014 Period 4 Lab #1: Density Determinations for Solutions Theory: The density of a sample of matter is very useful when trying to find the identity of an unknown substance. The units of density are quoted in (g/mL) for liquid samples of matter. For that reason if the volume is known of a liquid‚ determining its density is easily determined by weighing it accurately. Density can also be used as a tool for finding the concentration of solutions in some cases. The density is different in a substance
