    Potential Difference in Electrical Circuit Discussion: We conducted this experiment to test out the relationship of potential differences and currents in series and parallel circuits. We were to indicate the special properties that the potential differences and currents had with both types of circuits. In short‚ we were to test out Kirchhoff’s laws. Before starting the lab‚ we had to pick three different resistors and we were to calculate the values for the total resistances‚ potential

    oxidation-reduction reactions. The first part of the experiment measures the standard electrode potentials of five various half cells against the Cu2+(1M)|Cu half cell. The last three half cells are prepared through electrolysis. The electrode potentials of all reactions are positive which means that they are spontaneous. There is a significant percent difference from the theoretical and the experimental standard electrode potentials. The sources of error are incorrect solution preparation and contaminated materials

    Osmosis and Water Potential Year 11 Emary Venter INTRODUCTION: The cell is the basic unit of living things‚ and is made up of multiple organelles. Organelles are membrane bound subdivisions‚ each specialised for a specific function. This experiment looks at the Plasma Membrane‚ which is a semipermeable layer surrounding the cell. It’s primary job is to control what goes in and out of the cell. Molecules can move across this membrane in either an active movement or a passive movement

    itself‚ it has energy. When you think of energy‚ you might think of action- or objects in motion‚ like the baseball that shatters a window. There are different forms of energy. Turn on an electric light and a dark room becomes bright. Turn on a music player and sound comes through your headphones. In both situations‚ energy moves from one place to another; effect and reaction. The two different types of energy are kinetic and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy a moving object has because

    Introduction Molecules are constantly in motion due to thermal energy. Therefore‚ the molecules will move around and bump into each other. Because of this‚ molecules tend to spread out evenly into available space in a process called diffusion. Diffusion is the random process of molecules moving from areas of high concentration to low concentration‚ thus requiring no energy. Many of the substances that enter or leave the cell do so through diffusion. Osmosis‚ a type of diffusion‚ is the movement
