    Diffusion in Cells Isabel Zak Question: How does the size of a cell affect the distribution of chemicals throughout the cell? Hypothesis: The larger the cell is‚ the more difficult it will be for the chemicals to reach the centre of the cell‚ and diffuse throughout it. This is because there will be a higher surface-area to volume ratio in the larger cells‚ making the centre of the cells further away from the surface. Therefore‚ when dipped in sodium hydroxide‚ the larger cells will not

    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

    does surface area affect reaction speed? The aim of this experiment was to investigate how the surface area affects the rate of a reaction in between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid. My hypothesis was that if the surface area to volume ratio of calcium carbonate was increased‚ then the rate of the reaction will increase because there are more particles that are accessible by the hydrochloric acid‚ thus more particles that can react with each other. Variables Independent- Surface area

    The Bystander effect‚ or Bystander apathy‚ refers to the phenomenon in which the greater number of people present are less likely to help a person in distress. The less amount of people present‚ and or alone‚ will more likely feel responsible for helping one in distress. When an emergency situation occurs‚ observers are more likely to take action if there are few or no other witnesses. Bystander effect has been a problem for a long time. There have been many cases where this has been proven to be

    A cylinder is a shape with a circular bottom at the both ends that kind of looks like a pringles potato chip bottle THE formula of finding the volume of a cylinder is base area times height of cylinder. The base area will be the area of the circle which is pi x radius x radius So you just take that answer and multiply it by the height of a cylinder. done math math math cylinder cylinder asdfghjk lkjhgh jhgf ghjxskdskdgc kdshfkhshfkshksskkkkjs wordlimit mine is

    Name:_______________________________________________Date:____ _____Block:______ Diffusion In Agar Cubes Is Bigger Better? OR Is Smaller Smarter? Adapted from Flinn Scientific Publication No. 10110 Introduction: Diffusion is one of the very important processes by which substances such as nutrients‚ water‚ oxygen‚ and cellular wasted are transported between living cells and their environment. This activity will help you explore the relationship between diffusion and cell size by experimenting with model “cells.”

    1. SURFACE RUNOFF INTRODUCTION: Runoff means the draining or flowing off of precipitation from a catchment area through a surface channel enters into a stream channel. It is convenient to visualize three main routes of travel; overland flow (air hujan limpahanpermukaan)‚ interflow‚ and ground water flow (air dari punca bawah tanah). 1 Runoff results from rainfall occurrence in a hydrologic catchment. Rainfall-runoff relations are Interflow/subsurface and base flow/groundwater flow

Adsorption: The accumulation of molecular species at the surface rather than in the bulk of a solid or liquid is termed as adsorption. Adsorbate: The substance which is being adsorbed on the surface of another substance is called adsorbate. Adsorbent: The substance present in bulk‚ on the surface of which adsorption is taking place is called adsorbent. Desorption: The process of removing an

    then determined that there were four ways to increase the reaction rate: increase temperature‚ add a catalyst‚ increase surface area‚ and increase the concentration of reactants. The objective of this lab was to experimentally show how temperature and surface area impact the rate of reaction‚ so only two of these methods were tested. The evidence indicates that increasing surface area increases the reaction rate‚ and increasing temperature also increases the reaction rate. Temperature is the measure

    The Effect of Varying Molecular Weights on the Rate of Diffusion of Substances August 22‚2012 ABSTRACT The effect of molecular weight on the rate of diffusion was verified by the 2 tests: the glass tube setup and the water agar-gel setup. In the glass tube setup‚ two cotton balls were soaked in the solutions of hydrochloric acid (HCl) and ammonium hydroxide (NH4OH) and were simultaneously placed on both ends of the tubing.NH4OH had a lighter molecular weight of 35 g/mole which diffused
