I. Purpose The purpose of this lab was to see how an egg would react through a chemical reaction if it were to be added with an acid and a base. II. Materials 1 egg 400 mL beaker Citric acid Baking Soda Water Food coloring (optional) Stirring rod III. Procedure 1. Crack open and separate egg by pouring yolk back and forth between egg shell halves with the whites in the beaker 2. Add 5.0 grams (1 tsp) of citric acid 3. Add 5.0 grams ( 1 tsp) of baking soda 4. Put 2-3 drops of

the experiment was finalized the vinegar solution enlarged the eggs mass. Before the vinegar solution it was 55.1 grams and after the solution it was 67.9 grams. The volume of the egg was also increased. At the beginning it was 50 mL after the solution it was 60 mL; it had a 10 mL difference. It is visible that a hypotonic solution was present. This rejects the hypothesis made. When the egg was placed in 150 mL of vinegar and left intact overnight the egg did sink to the bottom and remain that way

starch solution stays within the beaker of water for a longer period of time‚ then more water will travel through the selectively permeable membrane due to the effects of diffusion on the solution. If the level of sucrose within the solution increases‚ then the effects of osmosis will cause the change in mass to also increase due to higher concentrations of sucrose and the increased net movement of the water molecules within the solution. Analysis - When the glucose and starch solution was placed

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 mass

Diffusion and Osmosis Using “Deshelled” Chicken Eggs Introduction In order for a cell to survive and function‚ it must maintain an internal steady state of environment in the midst of an ever-changing external environment. This steadiness is provided by the regulation of the movement of materials across its plasma membrane. Since not all substances penetrate the membrane equally well‚ the membrane is said to be differentially permeable. (IS) Diffusion is the tendency of molecules

Fermentation of a Carbohydrate: Ethanol from Sucrose Abstract The purpose of this lab was to demonstrate the fermentation process of ethanol from the substrate sucrose. To make ethanol from sucrose two enzymes invertase and zymase were used. Vacuum filtration and fractional distillation were performed to get a more concentrated solution. The density of ethanol was .825 g/mL with a percent composition of 85% pure

Microbiology Osmosis Lab Report Lab Experiment 9 Osmosis Introduction Kinetic energy is present in cells and its this energy that causes the cells to move. Diffusion causes cells to move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. Osmosis is a diffusion that allows movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane. Osmosis occurs until it reaches equilibrium‚ or when the concentration on each side is the same. This is called an isotonic solution. A solution with differing concentrations

Jolyne Piet CHM-221L-02 Lab #2: Experimental Design Isolation of Sucrose: 3.01 g Panacetin were weighed in a 125-mL Erlenmeyer flask‚ and 51mL dichloromethane were added to partially dissolve the Panacetin. The insoluble portion was gravity filtered and air dried to yield 0.45 g of sucrose (15.0 % of original Panacetin). Isolation of Aspirin: The organic filtrate was extracted through a separatory funnel with 32 mL 5% sodium bicarbonate to produce an aqueous layer and a dichloromethane layer

Osmosis and the Egg Lab Report By: N. Mullins Date: January 20‚ 2011 Introduction This lab was designed to explain the different things osmosis does. Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi permeable membrane. Over three days we tested the egg in three different solutions to observe the changes. On Day 1‚ the main question we answered was what happened to the egg when it was placed in vinegar? Before doing this I came to my hypothesis was that the vinegar would eat away at the shell and eventually

Osmosis Lab: The Incredible Egg How does the solution a cell is in effect the movement of substances into and out of the cell? Eggs were soaked in vinegar for twenty-four hours before the lab to dissolve the shell‚ then placed them into the distilled water. Then the eggs were taken out and dried by the paper towel to measure their weight on the electronic scale. First egg weighted 78.92g‚ most of the parts of it’s skin was white translucent‚ and was spongy. After the egg was submerged into the
