of this lab was to depicked the many properties of diffusion such as isotonic‚ hypotnonic‚ and hypertonic‚ so that students could have a clear visual example to go by for future refrences. We also did this to learn about selective permeability and osmosis. Our original hypothesis stated that the vinegar would react with the calcium in the shell to create CO2 bubbles. Note I said the original hypothesis as this experiment took coarse over a four day period‚ in which a new variable was added each day

1. Substances soluble in fat: fatty acid‚ glycerol‚ some vitamins (A‚D‚E‚K) 2. Neutral particles: water‚ oxygen‚ carbon dioxide‚ Example of Diffusion Between alveoli and blood capillaries in the lung during gases exchange. OSMOSIS What is Osmosis? Osmosis is the diffusion of a water through a semi-permeable membrane‚ from a solution of low solute concentration to a solution with high solute concentration. It is a physical process in which a solvent moves‚ without input of energy‚

Activity 3 Simulating Osmotic Pressure 1. Explain the effect that increasing the Na+Cl− concentration had on osmotic pressure and why it has this effect. How well did the results compare with your prediction? ___ ___ 2. Describe one way in which osmosis is similar to simple diffusion and one way in which it is different. ___ ___ 3. Solutes are sometimes measured in milliosmoles. Explain the statement‚ “Water chases milliosmoles.” ___ ___ 4. The conditions were 9 mM albumin in the left beaker

life functions F. Homeostasis - The tendency of living organisms to control or regulate changes in their internal environment G. Diffusion - The movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration H. Osmosis - The diffusion of water across a selectively permeable membrane I. Osmoconformer - An organism that allows its internal concentration of salts to change in order to match the external concentration of salts in the surrounding water J. Osmoregulator

POTENTIAL II OVERVIEW In this laboratory you will investigate the effect of solute concentration on water potential as it relates to living plant tissues. OBJECTIVES Before you begin this lab you should understand: - the mechanisms of diffusion and osmosis and their importance to cells - the concept of water potential - the relationship between solute concentration‚ pressure potential and the water potential of a solution - the concept of molarity and its relationship to osmotic concentration **also

3 1. The pressure will increase due to the increased concentration of sodium chloride. The pressure increased. 2. Neither one requires ATP. Simple diffusion is the movement of a solute from an area of HIGH to LOW solute concentration but osmosis is the movement of water from an area of LOW to High solute concentration. 3. Because water moves toward the HIGH concentration of solutes. 4. We know the pressure will increase in the albumin beaker because it is more impermeable than glucose

Why do you think the urea was not able to diffuse through the 20 MWCO membrane? How well did the results compare with your prediction? __ The molecules were to large to go through. My results matched._ 3. Describe the results of the attempts to diffuse glucose and albumin through the 200 MWCO membrane. How well did the results compare with your

Premium Diffusion Chemistry Molecular diffusion
the process by which organisms balance water‚ or solvent‚ concentrations with salt‚ or solute‚ concentrations in tissues and cells (Campbell). Organisms must perform this process of regulation because of the “Fick’s Law of Diffusion”‚ also called osmosis‚ which states that‚ “The flow of solvent from a solution of lower solute concentration to one of higher solute concentration” will occur. This means that in an organism water will cross a semi-permeable layer‚ tissues in cell walls in this case‚ from
