    EFFECT OF CONCENTRATION ON REACTION RATE The aim of this experiment is to find the effect of varying the concentration of iodide ions on the rate of reaction between hydrogen peroxide and an acidified solution of potassium iodide: H2O2(aq) + 2H+(aq) + 2I⁻ → 2H2O(l) + I2(aq) The course of this reaction can be followed by carrying it out in the presence of small quantities of starch and sodium thiosulfate solutions. As the iodine molecules are produced they immediately react with the thiosulfate

    consumes 150 to 170 pounds of sugar per year. Sugar is a sweet‚ crystalline substance that is used as a sweetener for everyday food and drinks‚ making it very prominent in the average person’s diet. It is an unavoidable carbohydrate to say the least‚ it is even in lettuce‚ however‚ it is reasonable to limit the amount of sugar one indulges in. This impacts adults and teens by draining people’s lives and making people frightened to consume sugar. Consuming too much sugar undoubtedly has a negative

    The effect of nutrient concentration on duckweed growth Gina Neonakis Biology 203L:11 Biology 203:10 November 14‚ 2011 Abstract Lemna minor‚ or duckweed‚ is a small plant that floats on the surface of stagnant water that is usually rich in nutrients. Phosphorus is an important macronutrient in the growth of aquatic plants. We tested the effect of phosphorus on duckweed population growth using a control medium rich in nutrients and compared it to the population growth in a medium that lacked

    Objective: To observe the effects of osmosis on eggs placed in vinegar (5% acetic acid)‚ syrup (60% sugar solution)‚ and water (100% distilled). Hypothesis: Hypothesis #1: It was hypothesised that the egg would gain 59 grams of mass after soaking in vinegar for 24 hours. Hypothesis #2: It was hypothesised that the egg would become larger when soaked in syrup than it once was due to the hypotonic environment. Hypothesis #3: It was hypothesised that the egg would soak in water for 72 hours‚ losing

    Diffusion & Osmosis 9/16/14-9/19/14; Jessica Bullock‚ Andrew Buchholz‚ Kristamae Masiclat    TITLE: Different Ways to Express Diffusion and Osmosis   INTRODUCTION: Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of a substance down its concentration gradient‚ from a region where it is more concentrated to a region where it is less concentrated. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane. The objective of this lab is to observe the different effects of diffusion and osmosis through

    by the concentration of starch‚ or whether the results I got were due to the amounts of solution used. This would make both my results and conclusion invalid and unreliable. I also made sure that the temperature of the water bath was at the correct temperature and I kept on checking the temperature of both my amylase‚ and starch using a thermometer. I made sure both solutions were at the same temperature at all times throughout my experiments‚ so that temperature would not have an effect on my results

    Experiment: Osmosis in Sucrose Solutions Abstract We used dialysis tubing to simulate a semi-permeable membrane. Since molecules diffuse from their higher concentration to their lower concentration‚ water will move across the membrane in response to this concentration. While conducting this lab we were able to observe passive transport through diffusion and osmosis. Introduction Osmosis is a specialized case of diffusion that involves the passive transport of water. When osmosis occurs

    germination is the uptake of water by the seed. This is the part where osmosis takes place. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane in which the water moves from a high concentration to an area where there are water molecules with a low concentration. Osmosis is similar to diffusion in the way mentioned earlier with the molecules moving from high to low concentration. Another similarity that osmosis shares with diffusion is that both processes work as passive transports
