As trade along the Silk Road grew‚ Chinese weavers wanted to design silks that would appeal to other cultures. (Cultural Diffusion & the Silk Route of Ancient China) Some examples of this are the silk rugs called “ The Tree of Life‚” that reflected upon the Persian culture. This rug contained the roundel animal symbol and scenes of saddled horsemen. They used thread wrapped

EXPERIMENT 5 GAS DIFFUSION COEFFICIENT OBJECTIVES: Determine the gas diffusion coefficient of acetone using the established Winkelmann’s method KEYWORDS Diffusivity‚ Gas Diffusion Coefficient‚ Winkelmann’s method OVERVIEW The knowledge of physical and chemical properties of certain materials is important because very often process engineering deal with the transformation and distribution of these materials in bulk. One such property is diffusivity. Mass transfer by diffusion takes place

Jean Perrin‚ a French physicist who later won the Nobel prize‚ spring boarded off of Einstein’s work. Using Brownian motion as evidence‚ he proved in 1911‚ once and for all‚ that matter is made of atoms and molecules. Diffusion Diffusion‚ also called molecular diffusion‚ is the process by which molecules of a given substance move from an area of relatively high concentration to an area of lower concentration. When the molecules have diffused so that they are in a uniform concentration‚ this

Purpose: The purpose of this lab is to test the effects of osmosis on eggs in hypertonic solutions and hypotonic solutions. Hypothesis: If the corn syrup is a hypertonic solution‚ then the egg’s size will shrink. If the water is a hypotonic solution‚ then the egg will swell. Materials: Styrofoam cups (2 per group) Styrofoam cups to weigh down egg (2) Balance Paper towels Vinegar (enough to cover egg) Distilled water Corn syrup Fresh eggs (2 per group) Procedure: Day

The Rate of Diffusion in Different Temperatures Purpose: To see if the temperature of a solution will change the rate blue diffuses in it. This will be tested by timing how long it takes dye to diffuse in warm water‚ cold water‚ and room temperature water. Hypothesis: I think that the dye will diffuse at a faster rate in the warm water than in the cold water. I believe that the room temperature water will have the dye diffuse faster than the cold water but slower than the warm water. Variable:

Diffusion and Osmosis of Solutes and Water Across a Membrane Brittany Bacallao Nova Southeastern University Abstract: This experiment gave a visual understanding of osmosis and diffusion. The first experiment proved that solutes would move down a concentration gradient if permeable to the selective membrane. The second experiment proved different solute concentrations affect the movement of water‚ depending on the solute concentration inside the cell. The purpose of this lab was to look for

How does diffusion affect the rate of growth? If I placed a gummy bear in various solutions‚ then the gummy bear would change in size‚ because diffusion and osmosis cause the gummy bear to react to the solution’s molecules‚ and further affects the gummy bear’s mass. An experimental lab conducted in class was tested‚ essentially to observe the effects of diffusion/osmosis. More specifically‚ according to‚ “merriam-webster.com/dictionary/diffusion‚” the process of diffusion causes particles to spread
