Part A: Title: Diffusion Diffusion is the spontaneous movement of particles from where they are more concentrated to where they are less concentrated. For this experiment‚ a 14 cm glass was filled with cold tap water. A drop of red food coloring was dropped in the cup. A stopwatch was used to measure the time it took for the food coloring to get to the bottom of the cup. The average diffusion rate was .78 cm a second. If a different color was used‚ I do not think it would have made a difference

The Effect of Salt Concentration on Osmosis in Potato Cells We should first explain what Osmosis is. It’s a passage of water from a region of high water concentration through membrane to a region of low water. Semi membrane is a very thin layer of material‚ which allows some things to pass through them but prevent other things from passing through. The cells allow small molecules like Oxygen‚ water‚ Carbon Dioxide‚ Ammonia. But will not allow larger molecules like Sucrose‚ Starch‚ or protein‚ etc

Aim To investigate the effects of increasing salinity on potato cell mass. Background Information This experiment is based upon osmosis. Osmosis can be defined as the net movement of water molecules from a region with high concentration to a region with low concentration. This movement must take place across a partially permeable membrane such as a cell wall‚ which lets smaller molecules such as water through but does not allow bigger molecules to pass through. This process will take place until

15 Problem: Can water float on water? Introduction: Can water float on water some say ye because ice can float but we are talking about water on top of water. The salt water and fresh will have different effects on the experiment. The experiment also see if the warmer the water is the different way it look. Purpose: The reason that I am doing this project is to see if water can float on water and to see the water at different densities‚ and salinity. To see if the salt water would sit on the

battery my salt water battery has the three main components‚ the electrolyte (in case you didn’t know its like a liquid that conducts th electric current (I hope I spelt that right))‚ a cathode (the negative electrode) and the an anode (the positive electrode). As you may or may not know a chemical reaction must occur so that that chemical energy can be converted into electrical energy which is then used for whatever. In my salt water battery the electric current passes through the salt water which separates

EXPERIMENT TO SHOW THE EFFECT OF DIFFERENT CONCENTRATION OF GLUCOSE ON POTATO STRIPS INTRODUCTION: Molecules of liquid and gas are constantly in motion‚ they move randomly in all directions and bounce around in all directions and bounce around and into each other. As they move‚ they tend to spread out moving from areas with many molecules to areas with fewer molecules . This process of spreading out is called Diffusion‚ for example smell of cooking travelling around the house from the kitchen

SALT WATER Introduction: Salt water refers to water that contains dissolved salts‚ known as saline water or seawater‚ water from oceans or seas. It is a home to varieties of aquatic animals‚ for example‚ fishes and snails. Some of these animals find it difficult to live in fresh water. If salt water animals go to live in fresh water they can not adapt the environment led to die to them. This essay aims to discuss the importance of salt water and the sub- types namely ocean‚ sea‚ and coral reefs

When a solute is dissolved in a liquid‚ the temperature at which that liquid freezes decreases‚ because the molecules of the solute become attached to the water molecules‚ making it more difficult for the water to form its crystaline shape and form into ice. This process is called Freezing

Osmosis and water potential Aim of the experiment: Finding the water potential of potato. Biological principles: Independent variable: concentration of the solution. Dependent variable: percentage changed in weight of the potato strips. Controlled variable: size of the potato strips‚ it can be controlled by cutting the length of the strips. Procedure: Table 1.
