Effect of Temperature on Salt Diffusion Rates and it’s Relation to the Human Body Hypothesis: Ordinary table salt is known to dissolve easily in water. Dissolving or diffusion is the spreading of particles in another substance. This is seen when smoke from a chimney diffuses in the air around it‚ or when dropping coloring in water. When NaCl‚ sodium chloride‚ or otherwise known as ordinary table salt is combined with water the separate salt and water molecules will be attracted to each other

ABSTRACT EXAMPLES Writing an Abstract – Examples Each student who completes a science fair project must write an abstract to be displayed with the project. An abstract gives the essence of the project in a brief but complete form — it should not exceed 250 words. Judges and the public should have a fairly accurate idea of the project after reading the abstract. The abstract must focus on the current year’s research and give only minimal reference to previous work. Details and discussions should

The Correlation between the Diffusion Rate of a Substance and its Molecular Weight ABSTRACT To test the effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion‚ various experiments were performed. One of which is the glass tube test wherein cotton balls of the same size were moistened in two different substances (NH4OH and HCl). These cotton balls were plugged at each side of a glass tube. After some time‚ formation of a white ring occurred. The white ring‚ in fact‚ is a product of the reaction between

Osmosis Rates in Artificial Cells Daniel George Department of Biology Grand Valley State University 1 Campus Drive Allendale‚ MI 49401 georged@mail.gvsu.edu Abstract The lab for this paper was conducted for the topic of osmosis‚ the movement of water from high to low concentration. Five artificial cells were created‚ each being filled with different concentrated solutions of sucrose. These artificial cells were placed in hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ or isotonic solutions for a period of 90

Experimental Laboratory Report: An investigation into the rate of osmosis Liana Gohery - 98332250 12/12/2014 Word count - ………3000……….. 1. Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the effect of concentration 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

Estimating Osmolarity by Change in Weight Abstract Optimum water content for normal physiological processes in plants is crucial. In order for normal activities to take place‚ the amount of water relative to osmotically active substance (OAS) in cells must be maintained within a reasonable range. The one way to estimate optimum water content is to find osmolarity of plants cells. Osmolarity can be indirectly measure by comparing change in weight and volume when plant cells are incubated in

Osmosis Design Lab November 19‚ 2011 Biology Defining the Problem and Selecting the Variables Research Question: What will happen to mass of the cell when it is placed in different solutions while trying to reach equilibrium? Background Information Osmosis is the procedure where water or different types of liquids move through a semipermeable membrane. This type of passage is considered as simple diffusion where no energy is required. This means that the liquid will have

Investigation into finding out the Effect of the effect of osmosis In potato cells Introduction I am doing an experiment to find out the effect that osmosis has on Water solution and a Sugar solution. Osmosis is a process which water moves from an area of low concentration to an area of high concentration. I am going to record my results to see if osmosis occurs in water solution of sugar solution. Apparatus In this experiment I would need; - 1) 3 test tube 2)

Osmosis using potato cores and sucrose solution 1.0 Abstract This experiment’s ultimate goal is to find the water potential of the potato cell. This was achieved through placing potato cores in different concentrations of sucrose (0.2%‚ 0.4%‚ 0.6%‚ 0.8%‚ 1.0%‚ 2.0%‚ 3.0% and 4.0%) solution and to observe how much water was gained or lost through osmosis to reach a prediction of the concentration within the potato cell. The results displayed that the concentration of sucrose within the potato cell
