he mass and length of the potato piece must be kept the same in each experiment primarily because they affect the surface area of the piece‚ and varying surface area could have a great effect on the rate of osmosis. This is because in an experiment where the potato chip has a large surface area‚ there is a larger area of partially permeable membrane and therefore more opportunity for water particles to pass through. I will keep the surface area the same by keeping the mass and length

S5E1 Gaseous Diffusion 1.0 ABSTRACT In this experiment‚ our objective is to find out the gas diffusion coefficient‚ D of acetone in the air. This experiment is conducted at a temperature of 50ºC and atmospheric pressure. The method that is applied to conduct this experiment is called the Winkleman method where the level of acetone (Z) is determined every 15 minutes by using a microscope. With the level of acetone being determined‚ a graph of t/L+Lo (min /mm) vs. L-Lo (mm) is plotted and the

What would you expect to happen if you added ddCTP (shown in a) to a DNA synthesis reaction in vitro in large excess over the concentration of deoxycytidine triphosphate (dCTP)? How will this affect the pattern of bands on the sequencing gel? The ddCTP lacks the OH‚ which is required for elongation

Weight management has been thought of as only weight loss by many. Weight management covers all aspects of attaining and maintaining optimum weight for a healthy lifestyle. Health professionals now realize that prevention of weight gain as well as weight loss and improving health status are important goals. These goals must be individualized for success. At the outset of treatment‚ the patient and health care provider should discuss and agree upon goals. The goals must take into account the

Weights programme – The programme designed has been designed to target all muscle groups effectively using a wide range of exercises. Exercises for the pectorals such as the bench press‚ exercises for the latissimus dorsi such as the lat pulldown‚ etc. I have created a programme consisting of 6 exercises. The exercises are bench press‚ lat pulldown‚ leg press‚ dumbbell shoulder press and bicep curl and tricep pushdown. The first exercise is bench press. This exercise can either be performed using

Thomas Graham studied the behavior of the diffusion of gases of unequal densities when placed in contact with each other‚ using air as his control. He wanted to numerically prove how the diffusion of the gas volumes was inversely proportional to the value of the density of the gas‚ under constant temperature and pressure. The significance of this experiment was that in led to a reevaluation of the concept of the movement of matter‚ realizing that diffusion dealt with small immeasurable elements of

Which MWCO dialysis membranes allowed both of these ions through? 50‚ 100‚ and 200 4. Which materials diffused from the left beaker to the right beaker? Urea‚ NaCl and glucose diffused 5. Which did not? Why? Albumin‚ because the molecular weight exceeded the highest MWCO membrane‚ thus being to large to pass through

Diffusion is one of several transport phenomena that occur in nature. A distinguishing feature of diffusion is that it results in mixing or mass transport‚ without requiring bulk motion. Thus‚ diffusion should not be confused with convection‚ or advections‚ which are other transport mechanisms that utilize bulk motion to move particles from one place to another. In Latin‚ "diffundere" means "to spread out". There are two ways to introduce the notion of diffusion: either a phenomenological approach
